Meet geologists and researchers and get involved with hands-on activities.

Learn about how we date rocks, how soils form, why James Hutton was such an important historical figure, and what cutting edge research is happening in Scotland.
Browse a geology related market; grab yourself an exclusive piece of artwork or jewellery inspired by Scottish Geology, pick up a new book, and maybe get it signed by the author.
Sip geological themed cocktails whilst watching the sunset light up Salisbury Crags (weather permitting), whilst joining in (optional) networking games to meet new people.
  Watch an exclusive planetarium show, or listen to our series of exclusive lightning talks.

And more!

The Cafe will also be open, selling hot drinks, a limited selection of hot dishes, grab-and-go, and bakery options
Under 18s must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Entry is free. Doors open from 19:00.
