Royal Institution Christmas Lectures 2025

TechFest and the University of Aberdeen are delighted to be an official livestream venue for this year’s Christmas Lectures from the Royal Institution. Join us to watch the lectures come to life in real time. Join leading space scientist Dame Dr Maggie Aderin-Pocock as she takes us on an epic voyage through time and space.

This event is perfect for all the family - children and people of all ages can come and watch the magic of the Lectures unfold in real time as they’re filmed in front of an audience in the Ri’s Theatre in London. They’ll have the chance to get involved with hands-on activities and be the first to discover the mysteries of the Universe before the 2025 CHRISTMAS LECTURES are broadcast on BBC Four and iPlayer in late December.

Maggie will explore the extraordinary breakthroughs that have revolutionised our understanding of the universe, enabling us to see ever further into space, and ever further back in time.

This event is suitable for age 11+, adults, teens and student audiences. Please note under 16s must be accompanied by an adult.
