Film screenings, contests and door prizes have been added to the centre's regular guided tours from December 27 to 30, 2007, and from January 3 to 6, 2008. And of course, all these activities are free!
The Electrium invites young people and their families to take part in an entertaining learning experience as they discover electricity's many aspects: its role in the human body, the origin of lightning, the secrets of electric eels, and how the earth's magnetic field works.

All visitors could be eligible to win a door prize by participating in a quiz related to the film, Follow the Line. Young people, 5 to 14 years, can also participate in an art contest where the most creative drawings will be rewarded.
