  • Colours of Ostrava Festival, Czech Republic (16-19 July)
  • Sonorama Ribera Festival, Spain (6-10 August)
  • Smukfest Festival, Denmark (7-10 August)
  • Rototom Festival, Spain (16-23 August)

If so, come and say hello! The CERN Festival Programme is back, and we are excited to welcome this year’s audiences.

At Colours of Ostrava, attendees can hear a talk from a Nobel Prize winner. Sonorama ticketholders will have the chance to create an LED lamp display. Smukfest offers talks on ‘Nuclear Power,’ ‘Quantum Computing,’ and ‘The Science of Addiction.’ YouTube science stars will make an appearance at Rototom Festival. And plenty more!

The CERN Festival Programme was born over ten years ago to bring science to a wider public and inspire new generations of scientists. Whether you’re a STEM enthusiast, or not at all, our jam-packed programme has something for everyone.

Come and see for yourself – between concerts, of course!
