Future is our passion
Brain Bar is Europe's largest future festival, where scientists, entrepreneurs, politicians and cultural personalities debate the most important issues of the 21st century. Since 2015, our festival has hosted world-renowned speakers such as sci-fi visionary Ted Chiang, PayPal founder Peter Thiel, the world's most awarded chef Massimo Bottura, world-renowned economist Mariana Mazzucato, astronaut Chris Hadfield, commander of the International Space Station, and Sophia, the planet's most famous humanoid robot. Brain Bar is visited by thousands of students and teachers every year, who can register for free. Our audiences are also made up of curious and eager-to-improve professionals from all over the world who make a conscious effort to keep their minds fresh.
The Brain Bar Tribe
Brain Bar boasts its very own student community. The Brain Bar Tribe provides inspiration, new knowledge, and networking opportunities to 50 talented young individuals at the same time, helping them make the most of their university and high school years. Our community also assists us in ensuring that the Brain Bar's message and content reach as many young people as possible.
Online content year-round
Brain Bar is certainly not just a festival: we produce high-quality educational content, podcasts, and videos throughout the year to open a window to the future for our community members.
