The Forum
The home of big ideas
A festival within a festival, The Forum programme sprawls from the serious to the surreal. With talks, debates, panels and plenty more, we put the big, thought-provoking questions to an overwhelming range of experts, professors and masterminds. Come and have your opinions shaken. When night falls, headline comedians and musicians take over.
