At Rototom Sunsplash, there are spaces that surprise, others that move you, and some that change the way you see the world. Discovery Lab belongs to this last category.
It's a place where science leaves the laboratories, steps down from its pedestal, and becomes an engaging, fun, and deeply human experience. A space designed for children, teenagers, and adults who all share one thing in common: curiosity.

Learning through play, thinking through sharing
Discovery Lab is a space where learning isn't an obligation, but a game. Here you experiment, ask questions, try things out, and talk.
Through workshops, talks and practical activities, complex topics such as the universe, physics, technology, artificial intelligence or scientific innovation become accessible and exciting.
You don't need to know science to enjoy it. All you need is the desire to understand the world around us a little better and share that experience with others.
Speakers who truly inspire
One of Discovery Lab's greatest strengths is the people who make it possible: scientists, science communicators, researchers, and thinkers who know how to communicate, listen, and connect.
These are incredible speakers who don't come to lecture, but to share knowledge , spark questions, and generate dialogue. Here, science is discussed with passion, humor, and a critical spirit, creating a welcoming atmosphere where everyone feels at home.
It is common to see children and adults sitting together, listening, asking questions and learning in the same space.
A space to discover together
Discovery Lab is also an intergenerational meeting point. Families discover together how the universe works, young people approach science through creativity, and adults rediscover the joy of learning without pressure.
This space fosters critical thinking, curiosity, and respect for knowledge, values that fully align with the philosophy of Rototom Sunsplash.
Science, culture and consciousness
At Discovery Lab, science isn't isolated: it engages in dialogue with the culture, music, and values of the festival. They talk about the future, technology, society, and how our decisions impact the world.
This space invites reflection, questioning and imagining new possibilities, always from a conscious, inclusive and open perspective.
Why Discovery Lab is so special
Because it shows that a music festival can also be a place to learn.
Because it transforms science into a live and accessible experience.
Because it brings together brilliant people eager to share.
And because remember that curiosity is a form of celebration .
Discovery Lab is not just another activity within the festival.
It is a space for restless minds, unhurried questions, and shared discoveries.
At Rototom Sunsplash, music is also listened to with the head… and with the heart. 💚🧠✨
