Maker Faire UK 2015

Maker Faire UK is the greatest show (and tell) on Earth! It’s a two day family friendly festival of invention and creativity, bringing together over 300 hackers, crafters, coders, DIYers and garden shed inventors from across the globe – people who love to make stuff and who want to share their passion with the public. At Maker Faire UK, you can explore and create with the Makers and enjoy playful installations, drop-in workshops and fascinating speakers. So whether you want to unleash your inner inventor, or if you just fancy a great, hands-on day out, don’t miss Maker Faire UK.

This year’s Maker Faire is set to have added fizz thanks to internet sensations EepyBird who are flying in from the U.S. to perform a spectacular live version of their famous “Extreme Diet Coke & Mentos Experiments,” one of the Internet’s best-known viral videos of all time.

The show will be performed outdoors in Times Square as geysers of soda will erupt over 25 feet into the air when EepyBird’s Fritz Grobe and Stephen Voltz don their lab coats and drop 624 Mentos mints into 104 two-litre bottles of Diet Coke.
