The European Researchers’ Night is a Europe-wide public event dedicated to science outreach. The aim is to get science research, innovation and scientifics closer to the public of all ages in a funny and entertaining way. The European Researchers’ Night showcases the diversity of science and its impact on citizens’ daily lives, stimulating interest in research careers. This event takes place every year in more than 400 cities of 30 European countries at the same time.
This year the European Researchers’ Night will run on November 27 and 28, an exceptional date due to Covid-19 pandemic. Children, young people and families will meet researchers and discover research, science and innovation through hands-on experiments, science shows, games, quizzes, competitions, exhibitions, and digital activities.
