Get ready for ten days of discovery, curiosity, and fun! The Sidmouth Science Festival returns this October with an exciting line-up of hands-on activities, talks, displays and events for all ages.
Our mission is to inform, inspire, and spark curiosity—bringing science to life and showing how it touches every part of our daily lives. Whether you’re a seasoned science fan or want to find out more about the world around you, there’s something here for you.
We especially welcome those who don’t usually engage with science— this festival is for everyone, and we’re passionate about making science accessible, surprising, and enjoyable for all.
We will add 2025 event details as they are finalised, meanwhile find out about last year’s festival.
