About this adventure
The Tech Interactive in downtown San Jose is a hands-on science and technology center with more than 100 experiences across its galleries, built around how innovation is changing everyday life and tackling big challenges. General admission includes one educational film in the IMAX Dome Theater, the Bay Area's only IMAX dome. Daily drop-in activities rotate: on the lower level The Tech Studio runs maker projects (a DIY fabric ghost for Halloween weekend), and upstairs the BioTinkering Lab offers biology sessions for ages 10 and up, with younger children joining alongside an adult. The daily schedule page lists what's on each day. The Tech Cafe opens at 10 a.m. with family-friendly food. Older students can enter the annual Tech Challenge design competition for grades 4–12.
