Highlights of this year’s event include a live fire demonstration proving why the Great Fire of London couldn’t happen again, your chance to get up close to bikes and wheelchairs of the future plus ask a robot to guess your age!Kids can get up close with gadgets at Imperial Festival!

There’s also plenty on offer for the kids. Little ones can check out the latest scientific discoveries, get hands on with gadgets and watch a demostration of flying robots. Or why not take a load off and relax under a night sky in the specially created planetarium?

For the first time this year the festival will feature a Food Zone showcasing science from farm to fork. You’ll be able to see how cheese can be made smoother using the rules of physics. For the peckish there’s also an on site farmers market and pop-up pub too!
