Since our first Festival in 2016, Norwich Science Festival has grown into a much-loved part of the city’s calendar. We’re so proud to see it now recognised as a major celebration of science, curiosity and creativity across the UK.
Presented by The Forum, the Festival is all about making science accessible, exciting and fun for everyone. This year, our eight-day programme invited visitors of all ages to discover how science shapes our shared future - from climate and biodiversity to health and technology.
Packed with inspiring talks, spectacular shows and plenty of wow moments, Norwich Science Festival 2025 was a reminder that the future is fluid, not fixed. It’s something we can all explore, question, and help create.
A week to remember
Taking place from 15-22 February 2025, this year’s Festival filled every corner of the city. The Forum was once again at the heart of the action, welcoming thousands of visitors through the doors to experience The Explorium’s hands-on exhibits and live demos.
Whether it was children discovering the explosive magic of chemistry for the first time, or adults deep-diving into climate science and artificial intelligence, the Festival programme had something for every keen scientist to enjoy.
