An amazing experience coming here to enjoy travelling exhibitions and science and astronomy. I have been here many times over the years and have always enjoyed the experience. I recommend coming here for a great time and a great learning experience. There is ample parking. It’s hard to explain all that is in this place, what I recommend is just coming and checking it out and having a great time.

So happy that we visited this science centre. Staff had informed us I f you have a membership your entrance fee is included for all other science centres across North America. Just remember to bring your membership cards with you or some proof of membership. Parking is also free as well and there are many spots available. You’ll need a full day here to explore! This place is great for families and children of all ages. Curious City is great for 2-6yo and the workshops are great for 7-12yo. Washrooms are very clean and kid friendly and cafeteria has plenty of seating and a great menu at fair prices. The current Myth Busters exhibit is a hit with the older kids and adults. The staff are also very helpful and awesome with kids.
I think there are some good features to this place but there are also some flaws. Good There is alot of different areas to view which is good for small children to keep them busy A decent amount of room to move around easily unless you have a double stroller then not Very friendly staff Takes a good few hours to go through everything Bad Expensive Not good with double strollers Been here twice and there are always so many tables in the cafeteria saying reserved Having the staff calling out numbers for food is horrible when there are 100 children screaming and running around No maps showing where to go
Our kids ALWAYS have a great day when we come! It's fantastic to have a place where you can take toddlers and tweens and everyone is happy. We have an annual family pass and find them to be great value for money. It can be hard to enjoy the displays when it is really busy, but we try to go at not peak times and it's much better.
Went to the "after hours" Dark Matters (18) showing. Fundamentally the same as the regular experience, except that that are a few satellite bars selling drinks and the are a few extra tables set up for outside presenters to showcase some extra points of interest. These are mostly outside parties that can frame their cause/subject in a scientific frame work and offer an interactive experience. Mostly went for the Marvel exhibit, wasn't disappointed. Always fun for everyone to be had. However, if you like smaller crowds and perhaps don't have kids or just want a kid free evening check the schedule for the Dark Matters event and go then.
The price is absolutely worth admission to TWOS if you actually take everything it includes in. It's a really great place in the city to take kids 8 and under. They are so occupied in a way that also helps them learn a lot. And their HUGE play place has a giant science water table, a mock kids plane with serving trays and light up cockpit! So cool. My daughter played in the plan alone for 30 minutes. There's also I bunch of giant building blocks, giant keyboard you walk on, a 3 and under section and much more. There's demonstrations all the time and the staff are fun and helpful. There's a restaurant on site. And a super fun gift shop. If you want to visit more than twice in a year it's worth getting an annual pass. There so much going on at TWOS that I can't even describe it all. So I'll attach some pictures. Oh there's also a revolving rock wall. Super cool! Just go check it out.
Finally I saw the Marvel universe exhibit. It's like I'm 13 once again. Telus WOS really brings in the best show for everyone. A great place for families to bond together. I'd say keep it up in coming up with great family exhibits. It's worth my money to have been part of marvel universe at Telus WOS.
A super cool place, attractions should be a bit bigger in my mind and should be updated a little bit more often but overall a amazing centre
