Under the title UP in the Spotlight, a premiere event was held on 21 February 2025 at the Fort Science to thank scientists for their communication of science to the public. Nearly five dozen academics were also accompanied by their loved ones during the evening.

On the occasion of the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, which falls every year on 11 February, a public debate was held at the Fort Science with five female scientists who first shared their experiences of working in science and then answered questions from the audience. The debate featured Lucie Brulíková, who works in the field of pharmaceutical development, Klára Hamuľáková, a lawyer, Petra Kührová, an expert in computational chemistry, Kateřina Vitásková, a speech therapist, and Veronika Gigalová, a social photographer.

An interactive science museum for all ages in a historically unique building offers permanent exhibitions and a varied programme throughout the year. See www.pevnostpoznani.cz.
