Event Nation partnered with its client, 1001 Inventions, to form part of the wider production team for the 2^nd China Science Festival in Beijing celebrating the ‘International Year of Light 2015’ (in association with UNESCO). The United Nations proclaimed 2015 as ‘The International Year of Light and Light-Based Technologies (IYL2015)’.

Spread across five giant halls within the giant Beijing Exhibition Centre, we were tasked with producing the ‘Light Hall’ packed with interactive science experiences and workshops, within the wider science festival. This involved creating a range of exhibitions, exhibits and experiential experiences dedicated to celebrating the theme of light, vision and optics partnering with national and international exhibitors.

The 2nd China Science Festival ran for two weeks and was a resounding success with schools, educators, families and science & technology museums and training institutions.
