Announcements

If you're travelling to the UK for QED this year, you probably need to apply for Electronic Travel Authorisation. Here's what you need to know.

We are delighted to announce two further additions to the line-up for the final QED: live recordings of the Inkredulous podcast and the Know Rogan Experience podcast.

We are delighted to announce three additions to the line-up for the final QED: writer and broadcaster Matthew Sweet, author and far-right researcher Sian Norris, and magician Paul Zenon.

In order to make QED as accessible as possible to parents, we offer places at our professionally-staffed childcare for free, throughout the weekend - but places are filling up fast!

There are now fewer than 50 tickets left for the final QED, which takes place in just less than four months, on October 25th-26th. If you haven’t bought yours yet, time is running out, as we do expect to sell out this year.

Tickets to last ever QED are now on sale. Our weekend celebration of science, reason and critical thinking, returns for the final time in October 2025 with our usual thrilling mix of main stage speakers, live podcast recordings, panel discussions, interactive workshops, and more.

All good things must come to an end, and after fifteen years of running the UK’s largest celebration of science, reason and critical thinking, 25th-26th October 2025 will be the final QED conference.
