This year's festival is filled to bursting with events that will make your world spin.
Where else can you...
Debate the hottest topics
- Should scientists be allowed to create human-animal hybrid embryos for research?
- Where would scientific evidence for a theory of everything leave religion?
Put your questions to some of the country's leading scientists
- Ask Richard Dawkins why he admires Charles Darwin.
- And Raymond Tallis knows everything you could want to know about your head.
Do your own experiments in the free hands-on Discover Zone exhibition.
Enjoy a drink whilst exploring the science of cocktails.
And indulge in a little sexual competition in Sperm Warfare.
...all on the same day!
And there are still four other days to enjoy...
Featuring, amongst others, Guest Director Nick Ross, Top Gear's Richard Hammond, Tony Robinson, comedian Mark Watson, Robert Winston, Steven Pinker and David King.
Ignore the science stereotype.
It's your life, your world, your festival.
See you there!
