NOX in a nutshell

  • NOX-tapahtuman abstrakti visuaalinen ilme.

    What?

    NOX is Heureka's new event concept for adults. You'll leave the event smarter than you came. You get to experience all of Heureka's exhibitions and the special program for the evening with one ticket!

    During the events we delve into current topics, discuss thought-provoking phenomena, and take a peek behind the scenes of Heureka's exhibitions.

    To whom?

    NOX evenings are K18. The events have their own theme, but the structure of the evenings remains the same.

    NOX evenings feature longer lectures, film analysis and NOX drinks. During the evening, visitors get the chance to tour two of Heureka's exhibitions and hear Behind the Scenes facts. The science restaurant will offer an evening meal in the spirit of co-creation, and the evening will culminate with H-Talk, where short intros about current research and topics will be heard.

NOX evenings for adults: a smart and fun evening at Heureka

Looking for something other than Netflix and the occasional doomscrolling for the evening? Did you know that Heureka also organizes theme nights for adults only? Welcome to the NOX evening at Heureka.

NOX events are science evenings aimed at adults. Each event has its own theme, which is explored during the evening. NOX evenings are organised twice a year. These are not half-baked after-work events, but genuinely thoughtfully curated evenings that combine current themes, high-quality programme content and a relaxed adult audience.

NOX evening themes and catering

Each NOX science evening has a current theme, which is approached from several different perspectives. During the evening, you will hear expert speeches, watch a themed film and discuss together. You will also have the opportunity to tour the exhibitions in peace without crowds, get to know the world behind the scenes and participate in short presentations where researchers present their own current research.

Food and drink are also part of the evening: The science restaurant serves an evening meal built around the theme, and NOX drinks ensure that the atmosphere doesn't run dry. NOX is the answer to what many adults need: a space to think, ask questions, discuss and experience together.
