We were thrilled to bring the British Science Festival back to the capital in 2024, working in partnership with the University of East London.

With nearly 100 free events across the Docklands campus and Stratford, the Festival offered a diverse range of engaging activities that entertained and inspired attendees.

From fascinating discussions on AI and its role in human relationships to performances from Sonic Spider a gigantic spider inspired musical instrument, there was something for everyone.

Notable speakers, included TikTok star Big Manny and an inspiring sports panel with world champion rower, Dame Katherine Grainger; former British and Commonwealth record holder for the 800m and 600m, Diane Modahl; and Olympic heptathlete, Kelly Sotherton.

Below is the complete 2024 guide to give a flavour of the diverse range of events that can make up the programme each year.
