There were plenty of flames and explosions, as well as tension in more than one sense, when the Danish Science Show Championship was held at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) on Saturday 22 April.

The Danish Science Show Championship is an annual event for science shows from Denmark’s universities, competing for the title of Denmark’s Best Science Show. Taking part this year were the Chemistry Show Aarhus, Physics Show Aarhus, Chemistry Show Aalborg, Physics Show Aalborg, Chemistry Show Copenhagen and Science Show DTU.

Aarhus University’s two science shows – Chemistry Show Aarhus and Physics Show Aarhus – won the honours in Saturday’s competition. For the third year in a row, the Chemistry Show succeeded in winning the trophy as Denmark’s Best Science Show, and the Physics Show Aarhus won a fine second place and the audience prize.
