Community Festival 2024: Showcase your research

a researcher at the 2023 Community Festival engages with a child and their parents with pipettes and scientific equipment

The University’s Community Festival returns to Campus this year on Saturday 18 May.

The Festival brings together local residents, alumni, community groups and small businesses for a programme of live music, theatre and performance, community stands, crafts, street food, and research activities.

Last year’s research programme included a research exhibition featuring stands with hands-on activities, children’s talks, research talks, and a multilingual storytelling activity. The activities were popular and well received by both visitors and participants, and this year’s Festival aims to expand on these activities and attract new audiences.

Participate in this year’s Community Festival

Expressions of interest are now open for research activities for the 2024 Community Festival. Researchers are invited to read the guidelines carefully and complete the short application form by 12pm on Monday 12 February to be considered.

Researchers from all disciplines are encouraged to apply, regardless of previous public engagement experience.
