Canada Wide Science Fair

Every year young scientists gather together at the Canada Wide Science Fair (CWSF) to share their innovations and ideas with others.  The fair location changes every year, allowing students to explore a new part of Canada. 

The Bluewater Science and Technology Fair sends six of the best students with their projects to the Canada Wide Festival.

Canada Wide Science Fair 2024 will take place in Fredericton, New Brunswick from May 31-June 6

CWSF 2025 will bring Canada's top young scientists together. The event will involve a variety of community organizations and individuals who will work together to make the national science fair experience memorable for participants.
