Library Festival: Lancaster University

Join us on the 23rd and 24th of September for a two-day festival featuring interactive exhibitions, activities, talks, comedy and live music in the library and online.

We're inviting our local friends and neighbours to explore the work of the Library, University and our community partners. Get hands on with objects from Lancaster museum and our Calligraphy workshops, participate as a citizen scientist in current research, explore Edwardian social media, discover more about the legendary bands who have played at Lancaster University or peer into a cinema from the past in 'Seeing in the Dark', a brand-new digital installation. This fun-filled festival has activities for all the family!

There's so much to do at our Library Festival. Whether you are interested in science or art, want to get hands-on and have fun or just want to find out more about the plethora of work that takes place at the University, join us for two days of family activities, exhibitions and live music.

Can't join us in person? Many of our events will also be available online, further details are provided in the festival programme.
