Get involved with the next Science Festival
We are currently welcoming event idea submissions for the next Science Festival, which runs Saturday 5 – Sunday 20 April. The Festival will explore the challenges of living on a planet with finite resources, through the lenses of science fiction and space exploration, with the theme Spaceship Earth.
We will consider all event submissions, but are particularly looking for talks and discussions, family shows and digital experiences.
