About the Event

Thank you for joining us from 15-16 August 2025 for STEAM Lab 2025. We hope you had an exciting time entering the unknown!

STEAM Lab is NLB’s festival for children and teens that celebrates Science, Tech, Engineering, Arts and Maths through learning and tinkering.

This year's theme, Enter the Unknown, invited participants to step beyond the familiar and discover new insights about the world around them. Through a spread of interactive booths, hands-on programmes, and fringe activities, attendees learnt how to stay curious and creative in a world full of surprises.
