A Mind-Blowing Exploration of Food, Culture, and Science! 

Pull up a chair—TELUS Spark presents Banquet! This immersive exhibition explores the science and joy of food through sight, smell, touch, taste, and sound. From the chemistry of cooking to the cultural traditions that shape how we eat, Banquet blends science with art, history, and society to create a truly sensory journey.

While the exhibition does not include actual food, it’s a celebration of how food connects us all—through science, culture, and curiosity. Whether you’re a foodie, a science lover, or just someone who enjoys a great meal, Banquet is a joyful deep dive into the experience of eating.
