Tips for the new online booking portal 

At this time, you can only book one program at a time. We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause.

  • Please book same programs in a row rather than in concurrent timeslots (for example, if you need 3 of the same program in a day, book them in the same room at 9:45, 11:15 and 12:45, rather than all three at 9:45). 
  • Allow your group at least 30 minutes between arrival time and your first program. If you plan to arrive at 9:45, please book 11:15 as your first program. This is especially important in the winter months with slow conditions. 
  • Bookings close 2 weeks before the program. 
  • Payment is due by the day of your program. 
  • You will be asked to agree to Spark’s Social Contract when you book. Please review it here.

Please note: to qualify for the 2024-25 school rates, a group of students and their chaperones must be participating in a field trip organized through:

  • An institution accredited by Alberta Education (or equivalent from another jurisdiction);
  • An organization licensed by Alberta Social Services for supervised child care; or,
  • Homeschooling.

There is always new science-tastic fun happening at Spark!
