Get down to this year’s Science Fair for stalls, demonstrations, and great experiments to try out. 

The Courthouse will be alive with local and regional groups showing off the best science Yorkshire has to offer. From physics to biology and engineering to wildlife, there really is something for everyone. 

Tea, coffee, cakes and lunch available in the cafe all day!

An evening of beer exploration. 

Ilkley Brewery has been expertly crafting beer for 15 years, and boasts a team of highly qualified technical brewers. It’s no surprise their beers consistently win national and global awards – there is a lot of science that goes into every drop, as well as passion. 

Let the magic and wonder of the natural world draw us into a deeper connection with our senses. 

By slowing down and letting go, we open more and more to what's here now. In this way we open our hearts and minds to our basic interconnectedness with all life. 

This session is led by Leeds Mindfulness Co-Operative and is a women only session, and part of a women's day in the 2024 Leeds Mindfulness Festival. 

No prior experience of attending this type of session before is necessary. 

It will take place in the Gatehouse at Abbey House Museum.
