Ada Scotland Festival 2025 Schools Programme
It is that time of year again: the Ada Scotland Festival is back for a sixth year, running from 29 September to 10 October in locations and online across Scotland. Events go live this week and there is lots on offer for schools.
Key events are below and we are also very keen to receive nominations for Inspiring Educator of Year.
There are some exciting additions to the programme this year including a high schools hub event in Edinburgh to be held at the Dovecot Studios and supported by Rockstar. We are particularly keen to invite schools in SMID postcodes for this event.
