This Pride Month we’re celebrating the diversity of sexual behaviour, biology and reproduction found in nature.

Speak with our scientists about all manner of subjects, from asexual reproduction in Komodo dragons to the marvellous mating methods of molluscs. Plus, watch award-winning drag king Bi-Curious George perform and pick your favourite specimen to use as a muse in one of our art workshops.

Enjoy exploring our galleries away from the daytime crowds, including our new free Fixing Our Broken Planet Gallery. Plus, visit our new exhibition Space: Could Life Exist Beyond Earth? for a truly out-of-this-world experience.

Highlights include:

  • getting to explore our galleries after hours

  • the chance to speak with our scientists

  • performances from drag king Bi-Curious George

  • Gender and Sexual Diversity Tours (limited capacity – bookings will be available the week of the event)
