The first full year of operation of the CERN Science Gateway has been a real success!

In 2024, we welcomed almost 390,000 visitors from over 171 countries. After only 15 months of operation, CERN Science Gateway is now one of the top 10 most visited tourist attractions in Switzerland.

CERN Science Gateway and the Globe of science and innovation are closed on Saturday 4 and Sunday 5 January due to annual tests and maintenance. They will also be closed on Monday 6 January like any other Monday.

We look forward to welcoming you again as from Tuesday 7 January for another exciting year of science and discovery.

Although the CERN campus is closed for two weeks as usual, CERN Science Gateway will be open during the end-of-year break!

Studying nature through the lens of science and art
