British Science Festival

Share

A celebration of the people, stories, and ideas at the heart of science. And you don’t need any knowledge of science to enjoy what’s on offer!

The British Science Festival programme offers over 100 free events encompassing science in the broadest sense, promising something for everyone. Spend the whole day, or occupy yourself for just a couple of hours, exploring the city and campus events. All tickets for the British Science Festival are completely free, but spaces are limited so booking is essential for most events.
