European Researchers’ Night is a Europe-wide public event that brings researchers closer to the public. The purpose of the event is to showcase the diversity of science and its impact on citizens’ daily lives, stimulating interest in research careers – particularly among young people.

This year, the event will take place in 29 countries on Friday 24 September.

In 2020, European Researchers’ Night attracted over 2 million visitors in Europe and beyond. Participants were able to meet researchers and discover the fascinating world of science in a fun and interactive environment – with their families or on their own.

European Researchers’ Night is funded under the European Commission’s Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions.
