We The Curious celebrates reopening with citywide ‘treasure hunt’ for free tickets
Bristol’s biggest science centre and educational charity is establishing a citywide “treasure hunt” ahead of its long-awaited reopening on July 6.
More than two years on from the fire that broke out in solar panels on its roof, We The Curious is working with community partners across Bristol to offer 80 group tickets free of charge.
Each ‘Curiositicket’ grants entry for six people to the much-loved attraction, as well a planetarium show and free travel via First Bus to and from the venue.
is needed now More than ever
The challenge is to find the special silver tokens which have been hidden all over the city for people to find, from community centres and city farms to even being hidden on buses.

Bryony Roberts, content director for We The Curious, said: “We’ve created these Curiositickets in the hope that we can provide a little surprise and fun for people in Bristol to get stuck into, as they search for our silver tokens all over the city.
“Being accessible and inclusive is really important to us, so ahead of our reopening we wanted to create a bit of a buzz with an activity that was open to everyone, whether you’re We The Curious fans or have never heard of us before.
“It’s also a great way to say thank you to everyone who supported us during our closure, including our brilliant partners, and those who’ve taken part in our Out and About events.
“It’s really meant a lot, so it feels right to celebrate reopening with our city.
“It’s the perfect way to get curious about your local area, and even explore a new part of Bristol you’ve not been to yet.
“We can’t wait to welcome the Curiositicket winners through our doors in our reopening year!”
