Be Curious: family open day at the University of Leeds
Saturday 18 May, 10am to 4pm
Join us for Be Curious, the University’s annual family open day. Each year we turn the campus into a hive of free family-friendly activities. Come along and get hands on with the research that happens right here in Leeds.
What’s new this year?
We want Be Curious to be enjoyed by everyone, which is why we’re introducing a quiet hour for visitors who prefer a calmer environment. Between 10am and 11am, the number of visitors will be limited to allow you to move around campus at your own pace.
You’ll need a ticket to enter the quiet hour. You can book before the event or on the day if we have any spaces.
Find out more about accessibility at Be Curious on our event information page. If you have any other questions or additional requirements, please email the Be Curious team at BeCurious@leeds.ac.uk.
