BubbleFest is Back!
03.31.17
Just in time for spring break, Discovery Cube in Santa Ana is celebrating its 21st annual Bubblefest, a festival featuring bubble scientist and performance artist Deni Yang. This hands-on exhibit has been the most popular attraction at Discovery Cube for two decades. Bubblefest will run Saturday, April 1 to Sunday, April 16.
The must-see event of the festival will be a 45-minute Mega Bubblefest Laser Show production with famed bubble scientist and performance artist Deni Yang. During the show, he’ll combine music, lasers, lighting effects and bubble artistry to create a spectacular experience for all ages. He will blow bubbles of all shapes, sizes and colors – some filled with swirling smoke and others seemingly dancing and rotating in mesmerizing displays of visual artistry. He also will invite a few lucky attendees on the stage during each performance to participate in various bubble tricks.
Deni Yang’s parents, Fan and Ana Yang are world renowned bubbleologists, Guinness Book of World Record holders and inventors of the Gazillion Bubbles Show.
Bubblefest will also feature water spheres, a bubble zone for guests of all ages and other bubble-focused educational experiments, including interactive activities for early learners who are 5 years old and younger.
General admission ticket prices are $17.95 for adults, $12.95 for children ages 3 to 14, $14.95 for seniors age 62 and older, and free for children 2 years old and younger, plus the pre-sale Bubblefest add-on ticket price is $5 for members and $7 for nonmembers.
Beginning April 1, 2017, all Bubblefest add-on ticket prices will be $10. General admission tickets include all Cube interactive exhibits, and Bubblefest tickets provide admission to one Mega Bubblefest Laser Show and all bubble-themed exhibits and activities. Discovery Cube is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tickets can be purchased online or upon arrival at the Discovery Cube entrance.
Discovery Cube is at 2500 N. Main St. in Santa Ana.
