Date Utrecht Science Week 2025 announced: 26 September to 5 October
The Utrecht Science Week 2024 was a great success! For over a week, you could visit inspiring events around (applied) science and innovation at the Utrecht Science Park. We are now preparing for the fifth edition of Utrecht Science Week, which will take place from Friday 26 September to Sunday 5 October 2025.
The Utrecht Science Park will open its doors and, together with various partners, a varied programme will be created for a diverse target group. The programme will focus on the themes of health and sustainability and include components such as lectures, presentations, tours and workshops.
Like last edition, in 2025 the Betweter Festival, the ‘Dag van de Duurzaamheid’ (Sustainability Day) and ‘Weekend van de Wetenschap’ (Weekend of Science) will also be part of the Utrecht Science Week.
