Open Days

National Oceanography Centre – Southampton

For one day of the year we open the doors of our Southampton office to the public, giving a unique view of the ground breaking science and engineering undertaken across the NOC.

The day is a mix of hands on science, exhibits and talks, with content aimed at all age groups. This is a unique opportunity to get close to our fleet of robotic vehicles and to talk to our scientists and engineers about the work that they do.

Due to COVID- 19 the 2021Open Day will take place as a virtual event on Tuesday 8 June, please register at https://noc-open-day-2021.vfairs.com
