LAS VEGAS (KSNV) — The Las Vegas Science & Technology Festival marked the end of its 15th year Saturday with its signature event, the Giant Science & Technology Expo, a free, full-day showcase of hands-on science and technology experiences.
The expo was held at the EXPO at World Market Center and featured more than 60 interactive exhibits and live demonstrations from scientists, researchers, STEM professionals, and organizations across Southern Nevada.
Attendees took part in experiments and STEM activations and watched live demonstrations. The event also offered opportunities to meet scientists and learn about robotics, virtual reality, coding, eSports, and other technologies. Visitors could also get up close with wildlife encounters and prehistoric fossils discovered in Nevada.
As part of the festival’s education focus, the Clark County School District school with the highest student and family attendance received the Giant Expo Attendance Award, which includes $1,000 for the school.
The attendance award tradition began with Elise L. Wolff Elementary School in 2023, followed by Billy and Rosemary Vassiliadis Elementary School in 2024 and Jerome D. Mack Middle School in 2025.
