The Telus Spark science centre is like one giant grift. $7 to park (wtf? Theft- same as zoo, just stupid except at least the zoo has a train station to it). Bottom floor vacant as they switch to some Christmas thing- so dumb. So the only exhibits are wedged upstairs, and honestly for the size and price (Jesus) is nowhere near adequate. Then they have some cool robot ride- oh- sorry- that’s $10 per kid on top of our exorbitant entrance fees. So they have a kid playground inside, which is of course unadulterated chaos, but not bad. Not really science-y though. Then a playground outside (it’s cold as ####, we are in Canada). A massively overpriced cafe and then gift shop. The place is like one giant cafe gift shop playground.
How is this a science centre? You have like a handful of exhibits when the bottom floor isn’t available. Movie theater show times, showing movies that are 30 mins, and they have like 4 viewings all day? Wtf?
This place is overpriced garbage. Doesn’t even hold a candle to Vancouver’s or Regina. It has the facility and potential to be good, but it seems like greed and stupidity are overflowing there. 1/10 stars. F- grade.
