More Information

Celebrate the science, technology, and pop culture surrounding one of the most famous non-events in history. Party like it’s 1999 when you delve into activities inspired by the late 90’s and early 2000’s including booyah buttons, PS2 battles, millennium snapshots, Y2K fashion faux paus, and much, much more! It’s gonna be the bomb.com!

Labs, lectures and experiences at this Social Science will include:

Party Like It’s 1999 Bask in all of the feel good hits of the late 90’s and early 2000’s and take a trip back in time as you bounce from activity to activity.

You Got “Pwn3d” The PlayStation 2 is the best-selling console of all time. Relive the magic when you play multiple time period classics on the big screen with your fellow Social Science goers thanks to our friends at CAP’N GAMES.

Milenium Snapshot Relax and enjoy the comforts of time period correct inflatable furniture while taking a picture to capture the moment with your friends.

TRL (Total Request Listening) CD’s or compact discs are still one of the best ways to listen to music in a high quality format. Test out your ear and vote for the best sounding headphones while enjoying some of the best Y2K albums.

Bomb Dot Com Bites Take in more of the Y2K life with some bomb tasting small bites courtesy of our friends at Great Basin Brewing.

Booyah Buttons Represent your favorite Y2K memory with your choice of over 40 button options. Get ready to receive “Hella props.”

Carbon Negative Create a custom hemp bracelet or necklace while learning about how this versatile and amazing crop plays a major role in global sustainability efforts.

Y2K Museum Walk through this mini museum and get a hands-on history lesson straight from Y2K.

Due to the popularity of the Social Science event series, we strongly recommend purchasing tickets in advance as capacity is limited and may sell out.

Social Science is The Discovery’s wildly popular adults-only, brain building event series featuring science demonstrations, hands-on labs, expert presentations, music, libations, and tasty bites.
