Events at the Festival include interactive presentations and workshops on exciting mathematical ideas, information about state-of-the-art current mathematical research, hands-on activities, and exhibitions. Some events are bookable and, since these are likely to be very popular and capacity is limited, we recommend booking in advance for these. A full list of events, times and locations, and a plan of the venue, can be found via the PROGRAMME link in the menu. Printed copies of the programme and venue plan will be available on the day.

All details are provisional.
