What Is Edinburgh Science Festival and Secondary?
The existing “Edinburgh Science Festival Competitions” record does not correspond to one current, recurring student contest. Edinburgh Science Foundation runs the Edinburgh Science Festival—an annual public programme of STEM shows, workshops, hands-on family activities, talks, and immersive experiences—and school programmes such as Careers Hive. The official pages reviewed do not publish a grades 9-12 competition, individual student entry form, judging rubric, prize, submission requirement, or youth-competition deadline.
The confirmed 2027 Festival, themed Dreamers, runs April 3-18 at venues around Edinburgh. Its full event-by-event programme, tickets, ages, capacity, accessibility, and prices are not yet uniformly published. The currently open September 13 call is for researchers, educators, performers, organizations, and other event producers proposing public programming; it is not a student competition and its presenter listing/venue fees must not be shown as student costs.
