Curious is the Royal Society of Edinburgh’s festival of knowledge. It brings together a range of leading thinkers and invites anyone who is curious-minded to come together to learn, discuss big ideas, ask questions, and get curious.

Running from 02 to 15 September 2024, this vibrant celebration of learning comprises talks, workshops, discussions, immersive experiences, tours, and exhibitions, all of which are free to attend.

Led by some of Scotland’s greatest minds across various disciplines, this year’s programme features a huge range of subjects. Choose from poetry, neurology, legal reform, and health to social care, food security, palaeontology, neurodiversity, space exploration, and much more.

Events are a mixture of hybrid, in-person and online.
