Event Schedule
There are multiple parallel tracks of content, spread across three floors of the hotel. Headline talks take place on the Main Stage, which is located in the International Suite on the third floor. In a change from previous years, youʼll find our Live Shows in the Garden Suite which is also on the third floor, within the hotel bar.
On the fourth floor we have the Panel Room in the Park Suite, featuring in-depth discussions on skeptical topics. There is also an Overflow Room, which will carry a live feed of the Panel Room throughout the weekend. Also on the fourth floor, is the Quiet Space, in case you need a time out.
On the second floor is the Workshop in the Senate Suite. Workshop numbers are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Finally, there are events on the QED Fringe, which are not part of our formal programme, but may be of interest to QED attendees.
