NEMO Science Museum launches pilot programme with evening events for adults

Tuesday, 3 February 2026

Within the partnership between 4TU and NEMO Science Museum, we are jointly committed to increasing science communication and reaching new target groups. In 2026, NEMO will launch a special pilot project that will make the museum even more accessible to a wider audience.

Pilot: NEMO also accessible outside regular opening hours

For many years, NEMO has been known as the family museum where children can learn about science and technology in a playful way. With the pilot project for extended opening hours, NEMO is investigating how the museum can be a meaningful place for visitors outside of its usual opening hours. The aim is to give more people, including adults, the opportunity to experience NEMO in a new way.

New evening programme for adults

An important part of the pilot is the introduction of a series of evening programmes especially for adults. These evenings offer a mix of:

All with a curious and accessible view of science and technology. More information about NEMO in the evening can be found at  NEMOsciencemuseum.nl.

Significance for the 4TU partnership

For 4TU, this pilot fits seamlessly with our shared ambition to make science widely accessible. The extended opening hours and new evening programme offer opportunities to reach new target groups, connect science and society, and explore innovative forms of public engagement.
