2025 Festival of Archaeology

Friday, 2nd May 2025

The RAI is proud to be a sponsor of the Festival of Archaeology, organised by the Council for British Archaeology (CBA), with events taking place across the country from the 19th July to 3rd August. This year’s theme, Archaeology and Wellbeing, celebrates the ways that archaeology can make a positive impact on wellness. The CBA will be incorporating the five ways to wellbeing into the events and activities, creating opportunities for people to give, be active, learn, take notice, and connect.

For budding archaeologists and early career archaeologists, the programme includes events for careers in heritage and archaeology for senior school students and the student and early careers conference.

Whether you would like to get involved as an organiser or attend the events, all the details are available on the CBA's Festival of Archaeology 2025 webpage.
