Science Festival is a week-long celebration of scientific knowledge, innovation and progress with a series of free events and activities for both students and the public.

Our 2021 theme, The value of science, explores the way we view scientific pursuits, the contributions they have made to society, and how much we're willing to fund them. Thank you to everyone who attended and supported the Festival. We look forward to seeing you next year!
