WIRED Next Generation 2018: The festival for 13- to 19-year-olds

Inspiring young people to build their – and our – future

TICKETS HOME SPEAKERS WORKSHOPS PARTNERS ABOUT 2017 HIGHLIGHTS

WIRED Next Generation gives young people access to the future and guides them on how to influence it. In this one-day event designed for 13- to 19-year-olds, attendees are introduced to fascinating individuals who have forged new paths for their careers.

Combining inspiring talks with hands-on workshops, this day motivates young people to dream up new ideas, and starts the important conversation on which future they want to build.

Ideal for school groups, parents and children, and associations looking for a field day for their teenagers, this event focuses on science, technology and more.

Launched in 2014, WIRED Next Generation will take place Saturday, November 3, 2018 at its new venue at an Art Gallery along London's Bankside.

In the past we have welcomed speakers including actor Andy Serkis, British astronaut Tim Peake, inspiring icon Poppy Jamie, bionic arm builder Samantha Payne and many more.

This year, there will more hands-on workshops than before and a selection of curated exhibitions in the room.

Schools can access discounts for groups of students. Email Kim Vigilia at wiredevents@condenast.co.uk for more information.
