UK Science Festivals - phase one (a collection)... phase two (event dates)

• Phase One - a list, with URLs, of Science Festivals that look like they might be annual rather than one-offs
• Phase Two - event dates (considerably helped by the British Interactive Guide's month-by-month list of festivals)
• Phase Three - application dates and contact / liaison information

If your favourite science festival isn't listed please let me know - comments below, jo dot brodie AT gmail dot com or @JoBrodie, thank you.
