On Nov. 17, 2022, Liberty Science Center threw the ultimate 21+ pizza party at LSC After Dark: Pizza Party!
It was a night filled with activities and adventures celebrating everything PIZZA!
Guests played with pizza piñatas, tried their skill at pizza tossing, competed at the Pizza Trivia competition, and enjoyed different kinds of pizza at the Food Hall. Of course, guests paid a visit to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – whose favorite food is pizza – in our exhibit Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Secrets of the Sewer.
But this was also a special night for many more reasons! One, it was the debut of our Bad Bunny Laser Show – the most popular laser show we’ve ever had in the history of LSC After Dark! Guests filled the planetarium rocking out to Bad Bunny’s music set to high-tech lasers.

But that’s not all! Tonight, we also had a very special Taste of Pompeii culinary experience.
From modern day pizza ovens to the ancient Roman Empire, guests were invited to wine and dine to celebrate our new exhibit, Pompeii: The Immortal City. Attendees enjoyed wine tastings from the Campania region of Italy paired with delicious bites inspired by this long ago time.
Some of the menu highlights included stuffed dates with goat cheese, ricotta-filled phyllo with honey, and modern Roman libum – a.k.a. “Roman cheesecake” – which was a sacrificial cake offered to household spirits during Rome’s early history.
After enjoying the Taste of Pompeii, guests toured our stunning new exhibition gallery, featuring precisely preserved scenes of Pompeiian daily life and the most recent archaeological finds.
What an amazing night! Thanks to all who came out!
