Founded in 2006, SciFest is the largest second-level STEM fair programme in Ireland with over 10,000 students participating annually. SciFest’s aim is to ensure every second-level student irrespective of their ability, gender, background or circumstance has the opportunity to participate in a STEM fair thus lowering barriers and bringing the talents of diverse populations into the innovation and STEM talent pipeline.
SciFest operates across the whole island of Ireland, throughout the entire school year and, being locally and regionally based and free to enter, it is highly inclusive and accessible.
