The FREE, robot-themed, family festival of technology, engineering, science and digital arts
So often robotics and cutting-edge technology is seen as something that people use that's been created by big tech but there is world class research and engineering happening on your doorstep and you can be part of it. You can find out about space propulsion systems, AI talking heads, immersive musical environments, space robotics etc.

Thanks to the staff and students from local universities and robotics and educational technology companies there will be
• Hand-on activities including remote control robot challenges and chances to build and code your own robots
• Workshops

• Demonstrations
• Speakers talking about some of the latest developments and applications and careers involving robotics

Engineering and technology contributes to so many aspects of life and offers so many opportunities to young people – learn more about these at Robot Day
