Hands-on science session from Techniquest about the chemistry of bath bombs, including making your own to take home, part of the Swansea Science Festival 2026.
Techniquest are bringing their Bath Bombs session to the National Waterfront Museum on Saturday 31 October, starting at 11am. It's part of the Swansea Science Festival 2026, a weekend of making, exploring and discovering that runs across the city.
The session takes something most of us know from the bath and pulls it apart. You'll get into the science of what actually makes a bath bomb fizz, how different scents can affect your mood, and why they look and smell the way they do. Once that's sorted, you'll investigate the ingredients, colours and fragrances that go into them and make your own to take home.
It's one of the ticketed bits of the festival, and the wider programme runs with tickets from just £1 per person alongside a large line-up of free exhibitions and activities. If you're planning to spend the whole weekend on it, there's plenty more to pick from across the city.
