The University of Wolverhampton annual festival SciFest returns this June.

With the aim of increasing aspiration through fun interactive means in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Maths (STEM). Since 2012, the festival has provided school learners and the wider community with the largest science and engineering festival at any university in the West Midlands outside the British Science Festival.

SciFest brings together external partners from business, professional organizations, museums, engagement practitioners and staff from a variety of University Facilities to organize and deliver two days of immersive informal engagement in all aspects of STEM, health careers and the arts.

This STEM festival encourages the exploration and discovery of learning and careers through activity and consists of numerous drop-in activities housed in the courtyard discovery area and bookable activities in rooms around the University of Wolverhampton City Campus.

Whilst Friday 28 June is an exclusive student day, Saturday 29 June 2024 is the Community Day, where everyone is welcome. Learners and adults of all ages have the opportunity to explore Science, Technology, Engineering, and Maths (STEM) as they have never seen before. There will be drop-in activities within the Courtyard and pre-bookable workshops and shows located within the University at City Campus.

Whilst this is a free event, pre-booked tickets are required due to having a maximum capacity. If you do not have tickets, you may not be able to gain entry into the event. Please book one ticket per individual attending. Individuals under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult within all of the sessions, so please ensure the correct number of tickets are booked as the sessions have a limited capacity.

You will only be able to book workshops and shows once you have booked your general admission tickets as these are mandatory to attend the festival. Please follow the instructions in your order confirmation email to book these. You can pre-book your ticket at eventbrite.co.uk.
