Le Village des sciences de Blois made its debut at the Cité départementale du Numérique during the Fête de la Science in Loir-et-Cher, drawing nearly 600 visitors. The event featured around a dozen stands where the public could meet researchers, scientists, and representatives from laboratories, research institutions, and educational and cultural organizations in the region. Attendees of all ages participated in interactive workshops, experiments, and demonstrations, and had the opportunity to engage directly with professionals in the field of science and technology. This year's event included contributions from a wide range of organizations, such as Centre-Sciences, Loir&Cher Tech, INSA Centre Val de Loire, the University of Tours, IUTs in Blois and Tours, research laboratories GREMAN and LIFAT, the CDPNE, Conflusciences, the League of Education of Loir-et-Cher, the Museum of Blois, the AMPC, the Radioamateurs of Loir-et-Cher, and the Saint-Laurent power plant. These collaborations highlighted the diverse scientific and cultural landscape of the region and reinforced Le Village des sciences de Blois as a key platform for public engagement with science. The Fête de la Science will continue in Loir-et-Cher with several upcoming events. On Tuesday, October 6, a conference titled "Voulons-nous vraiment des coquelicots ?" (Do We Really Want Poppies?) will take place at the Samuel Paty auditorium in Blois.
