Oli the magician was amazing! So great with the kids, so funny, and he had all the adults scratching their heads in confusion trying to figure it out.

Science Parties in San Francisco — FAQs

Everything you need to know before you book.

Ask us a question
How much does a science party host cost per party in San Francisco?

Typically $215–$375 per event to start, for a one-hour home show (Mad Science of Colorado, Mad Science of the Triangle and Mad Science Bay Area, 2026). Those are other companies' published rates: no San Francisco science party host has listed a Yombu rate yet, and you always see the exact total before you pay.

How many science party hosts are available in San Francisco?

Yombu is onboarding science party hosts in San Francisco now. Tell us your date and we'll match you with the right vetted local pro — within 24 hours.

Do science party hosts near me travel to Alameda, Bay Area and Contra Costa?

Yes — Alameda, Bay Area and Contra Costa are inside the San Francisco area Yombu covers. We're onboarding San Francisco science party hosts now, and we match you with one whose travel radius reaches your address.

How far in advance should I book a science party host in San Francisco?

Three to four weeks ahead. Mad Science franchises in Colorado, the Triangle and the Bay Area all ask for at least that much notice, because hosts restock a kit of materials between shows. Yombu is still onboarding San Francisco science party hosts, so we match these parties by hand and more notice means more choice; last-minute is still worth asking.

What should I expect from science parties in San Francisco?

In San Francisco, a science party is typically a 45–60 minute booking: hands-on experiments built for a birthday crowd. A science party host runs a hands-on show built entirely around moments a birthday crowd can touch and try themselves — bubbling reactions, dry-ice fog, slime everyone takes home. Sessions typically run 45–60 minutes and play more like a performance than a classroom lesson, with the host handling setup and cleanup of the experiment stations.

Are science party experiments safe for kids?

Yes, when the host handles anything hot, cold or chemical. Dry ice in particular should only ever be handled by the host, with gloves, never by the kids. Ask what the take-home slime or polymer creations are made of, so you can check them against any allergies on your guest list.

What age range gets the most out of a science party?

Kids roughly 6 to 11 get the most out of it. They're old enough to follow simple instructions and curious how things work, but young enough that a foaming reaction still gets a real gasp; hosts simplify or add showmanship for the age mix in the room.

Their best birthday starts here.
