Join in the Festival Fun

Picture
The Colorado Springs Cool Science Festival is all about presenting cool and exciting opportunities for the general public to discover and engage in amazing Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math (STEAM) taking place throughout the Pikes Peak Region.  For 2022 we have decided to  experiment with expanding the festival to officially include events from September 24 through October 9, although we may include a few special events outside those dates as well.  

​Cool Science Carnival Day will be Saturday, October 1 (10 am - 4 pm) at UCCS.  Right now it looks like on Carnival Day at UCCS no one will be required to wear a mask, but we do suggest that anyone not vaccinated should wear a mask inside all buildings and all attendees will be asked to pre-register to provide information in case contact tracing is necessary.  If anything changes we will update this page.


There are several ways that your business, club, school or other organization can join in the CSCSF fun.  You can present a demonstration show, performance or hands-on activity station for kids in the Cool Science Carnival Day at UCCS.  You can also host your own special event anytime during the Festival dates, and we will also consider including some special events anytime in September or October.  Finally, if you're not quite ready to create something on your own but still want to participate as a group, we can train your member volunteers to run one of our Carnival Day activities or Festival week events.  You can also check out the festival events and Carnival Day activities from last year as well as previous festivals in 2018 (Carnival Day) and 2019 (Carnival Day) to get a better idea of what the festival and Carnival Day is like and for ideas for events and activities (in 2020 the Carnival Day and most festival events were virtual).

We also have lots of opportunities for individuals to help out during the Carnival Day and Festival week.  Cool Science relies on its passionate and dedicated volunteers to plan, manage and host this extraordinary science festival. 

To find out more and to sign up, just select one of the options below.  If you have a question or suggestion you may also contact the festival organizers.
