Two checks before setting off
The Daegu Creativity and Convergence Education Institute in Suseong-gu offers spaces for exploring science and mathematics. Before taking children to the Daegu Student Science Museum, check which day you can visit and which rooms are currently open. These details can make the difference between a rewarding trip and a missed experience.
Weekends are for public walk-in visits in November
The museum's official guide says Tuesdays to Fridays in March–July and September–December are allocated to school-group activities, with no public walk-in viewing. General visitors can come on Saturdays and Sundays, from 10:00 to 13:00 and again from 13:10 to 17:00, with a ten-minute ventilation break. The museum closes on Mondays and public holidays in those months. The pattern changes in January, February and August: public visits are Monday to Saturday, with Sundays and public holidays closed.
The first floor is being renovated, not the entire museum
A notice published on 21 October 2026 explains that the first-floor Future Science Experience Hall is closed from 23 October 2026 through 28 February 2027 for exhibit replacement and refurbishment. Crucially, the same notice says other galleries remain open. This is not a museum-wide closure, but visitors should not plan on using that specific hall during the stated period.
The planetarium runs to its own schedule
The official planetarium sessions are listed at 14:00–14:30 and 16:00–16:30. They are separate from the open-gallery viewing windows, so check entry times and age guidance in advance. Current places and eligibility for individual family or learning programs must be checked on each program's own application page.
How to find it
The institute is at 172 Dongdaegu-ro, Suseong-gu, Daegu and can be reached via Children's World Station on Metro Line 3. Before travelling, confirm the gallery you want is open, the relevant visiting day and any program-specific booking conditions. Museum enquiries: 053-231-1203 or 1204.
