What and When is SciBar??


SciBar is exactly what it sounds like - Science in a Bar! Our goal is to bring science to a wider audience in a relaxing and informal environment. 

These events are run at the Port Mahon Pub (see below for map) in the St.Clements area of Oxford on the third Thursday of every month. The topics are varied, previously we've covered everything from detox diets to the legacy humans will leave on the Earth, so there's bound to be something that appeals to all tastes. You can see a list of our previous speakers on our Past Events page! 

The events are free and no previous science knowledge is required - so come along and learn the science behind everyday life over a pint!

Getting Here:

The Oxford Bus Company Route 4*, 5 , 8 and 9 will take you from the City Centre to St Clements Road.

*Only Route 4 goes directly to and from the rail station. Please see the Oxford Bus Company's website for full route and fare details
