A splashy, high-energy science circus where water takes centre stage, Splish Splash Science! delivers laughs, learning and hands-on fun for curious kids at Adelaide Fringe 2026.

The multi-award-winning That Science Gang team returns to Adelaide with a show that promises to be as wet as it is wonderful. Splish Splash Science! is a circus of experiments where water is the star performer. From fun-filled science tricks to hilarious stage antics, ringmaster Rip Tide will have kids and adults alike laughing, learning, and dodging the occasional splash!

Fresh from a sold-out Sydney season, this interactive show invites children to step into the SPLASH ZONE and take part in Rip’s amazing feats. It’s a show that blends humour, spectacle, and curiosity, inspiring young minds while keeping the fun front and centre. Riverside Theatres praised it as “a superbly crafted blend of humour, fun and science with the ability to inspire curiosity in both the young and the young at heart.”

If your family loves science, laughs, and a little chaos, Splish Splash Science! is a must-see this Adelaide Fringe. And with its G rating and high-energy 60-minute runtime, it’s perfect for kids of all ages.

Location: The Roundhouse at The Garden of Unearthly Delights
