Talks and discussions are intended for an adult audience and are most suitable for ages 14+.
These events are part of the Flourishing Futures talk series. The talk will have some advance tickets released to visitors closer to the festival weekend as well as having drop in spaces on the day.
If you have an advance ticket, please arrive at the venue 10 minutes before the start time. Your ticket gives you priority access, however, as this is a free event we overbook to help ensure a full event and your space may be reallocated. Early arrival reduces this risk.
The event has step-free access and a hearing loop system.
