The Universitat de València, through its Faculty of Physics, is organizing the 21st edition of the Experimenta fair-competition, which will bring together 74 science and technology projects at the Museum of Sciences in València on Sunday, April 26.

This event, which aims to bring physics and technology closer to secondary school students and the general public, will feature the participation of over 300 people, including students and teachers. Admission is free, and attendees can observe STEM projects developed by ESO, baccalaureate, and vocational training students.
Simultaneously, between 10 AM and 1 PM, the Fisicalandia children's workshop will be active, where children can build and understand simple demonstrations based on natural phenomena. The public will have the opportunity to ask questions about the operation and development of any of the experiments presented.
“

"Preparing the exhibition we organized for the fair's 20th anniversary, we realized the enormous value of the work and materials produced and the educational and social impact of Experimenta, a fair that is a benchmark in the Valencian Community and at a national level. One more year we celebrate curiosity, enthusiasm, and dissemination to all types of public."

Chantal Ferrer Roca · Coordinator of the Experimenta fair and professor of Applied Physics and Electromagnetism at the Universitat de València
The fair also includes a competition for the best projects, with prizes of 150 euros per participant for the four winning projects and a 100 euro prize per participant for the project most voted by the public. Tutoring teachers of awarded projects or those with an honorable mention will receive gifts, and the Ministry of Education recognizes this dedication.
As a novelty, this year two physics projects specifically designed for people with visual disabilities will be presented, and another will feature simultaneous translation in sign language for people with hearing disabilities. The projects, which can be demonstrations or technological applications, must explain the physical principles on which they are based.
The awards ceremony will take place at 1:30 PM in the Santiago Grisolía auditorium of the Museum of Sciences, preceded by a brief scientific interlude by Marc Santandreu, meteorologist for RTVE and former student of the Faculty of Physics. The fair is supported by the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT-MICIU), the Museum of Sciences of València, the València City Council, the Institute of Corpuscular Physics (IFIC), and the Royal Spanish Society of Physics, among other entities.
