The York Researcher Festival
Our annual York Researcher Festival is an opportunity to collectively celebrate the contribution that early career researchers make to research, culture and community at York. The Festival provides opportunities for researchers to come together across disciplines to share experiences, learn, network and develop new skills.

The Annual York Researcher Festival took place during the week 6-10 November 2023 - many thanks to everybody who was involved. Details of our 2024 event will be updated here in due course.
The Festival provides a dedicated space and time in which we celebrate our early career researchers (both postgraduate researchers and postdocs) and facilitate opportunities to come together across disciplines - to share experiences, learn, network and develop new skills. Researchers at York should be encouraged to engage in a minimum of 10 days’ professional development pro rata per year.
