Festival of Science

A spectacular festival of science is taking over the Southbank Centre in London during the summer of 2010.

In late June and early July 2010, the Society, in partnership with the Southbank Centre, will present a huge and splendid celebration of the joy and vitality of science, its importance to society and culture and its role in shaping who we are and who we will become.

The festival will include an enhanced version of the Society’s annual Summer Science Exhibition.  Interactive exhibits will permeate across the ground floor of the Southbank Centre and visitors will have the chance to talk to scientists and engineers at the forefront of the UK’s research activities.

In addition to the exhibition, there will be:

• Talks, debates, performances and activities for young people and families;
• Installations demonstrating collaborations and interactions between science and art;
• Large-scale displays on the pavements and walkways surrounding the Royal Festival Hall;
• Scientific conferences;
• A ceremony to mark the Society’s 350^th anniversary
