About the Festival

Celebrate and share the latest thinking in global neuroscience!

On behalf of the BNA2025 Programme Organising Committee and the British Neuroscience Association (BNA), we are delighted to announce that the 7th International Festival of Neuroscience will be held from 27 to 30 April 2025 at the ACC, Liverpool, UK.

It is our pleasure to invite you to join us at this unique scientific conference, which will bring together multiple sectors to share the highest quality science and form lasting connections.

The ambition and scope of the BNA Festivals of Neuroscience make them unparalleled across the UK. This novel, multi-organisation forum brings together all those with an interest in brain research at a single shared event. From fundamental neuroscience in both academic and commercial sectors, to clinical expertise and patient perspectives in neurology, psychology and psychiatry – we have it all. In both its scientific programme and its breadth of attendees, BNA2025 will celebrate the diversity and scientific excellence of our neuroscience community.

Our focus is to connect, inform and influence the future of neuroscience. BNA2025 will provide our delegates and partners with more opportunities than ever to engage with like-minded peers, learn from leading experts in the field and advance their science and careers.

We intend to create a lasting legacy with our Festivals - BNA2025 will be no different, with an extensive programme of public activities and events to immerse Liverpool in Neuroscience and involve the local community and region (see BYOB 2023 'Bring Your Own Brain'). 

In addition to its strong life sciences focus, Liverpool, our host city, is known all over the world for its hospitality, musical and maritime history, culture and diversity.     

We are looking forward to welcoming you to this vibrant city, for what will be the largest neuroscience event of its kind across Europe in 2025.  

We can't wait to welcome you to Liverpool in 2025!
