The Festival of Science is pleased to announce the 2nd annual Scavenger Hunt, taking place on May 3rd, 2025.

Participate in a family-friendly community event on May 3rd! The Scavenger Hunt invites teams of up to 4 to participate in an exciting day of discovery and fun! The Scavenger Hunt celebrates science and Flagstaff in a city-wide participatory experience for teams.

This dynamic event promises fun for teams, who are guided by creatively designed clues, to explore various locations in our vibrant city, take hilarious selfies, and learn about science in Flagstaff. With the right amount of challenge to heighten your experience, your team will work together to discover as many destinations as you’d like. Prizes are offered for many achievements beyond the number of items found. So, gather family or friends and make it an adventure!

As a participant, you’ll receive exclusive swag, refreshments at the post-event celebration, volunteer support, prizes, and, most importantly, a great deal of fun!
