SkeptiCamp Manchester 2022
Also returning is the free SkeptiCamp event as part of QED weekend. At
SkeptiCamp, the attendees are responsible for the creation and delivery
of the dayʼs content, and anyone is eligible to present a talk. You
donʼt need to be a published author, famous podcaster or professional
communicator to get involved. SkeptiCamp Manchester 2022 takes place on
Friday 28th October, is completely free, and this year
is being organised by our good friends at Skeptics in the Pub Online.
Information on the final line-up for SkeptiCamp 2022 is available now at sitp.online/skepticamp/schedule.
