Following the success of last year’s inaugural festival, the Institute of Physics is now accepting event applications for the
2018 Scottish Festival of Physics.
The festival will take place from Friday 26th October – Sunday 28th October inclusive at
Dynamic Earth in Edinburgh.
The event will be a celebration of the role that physics plays in our world and beyond, with an emphasis on cross-disciplinary content that demonstrates the intersections of physics with other sciences and forms of culture – not only physicists
need apply. If you have an interesting event, we’d love to hear from you.
The programme will include an adult event strand alongside teen, family and early years offerings, so we are seeking inspiring and interactive content in the form of workshops, shows, talks, debates, games and art for a range of ages.
This year, the theme of the festival is Time. We would be keen to encourage submissions of content that explores or is related to this theme, although it is not prohibitive.
The call for ideas will run from 4pm on Monday, 11th June until
4pm Wednesday, 11th July.
To obtain a copy of the application form and guidance notes or if you have any questions regarding the festival, please contact Siân Hickson, Public Engagement Manager for Scotland, on [log in to unmask].
*please note – I will be on leave from the 13 – 24 June inclusive; to obtain the forms in my absence please contact Alison McLure on
[log in to unmask] or I will attend to requests on my return.
