Family Learning Festival

Family Learning Festival is a national celebration which marks and inspires a love of learning in family life. It takes place in October every year.

Theme for 2024: Inspiring Curiosity

Learning as a family can help us to become confident, lifelong learners with all the benefits that brings - from better health to being happier. Family learning supports children to achieve at school. It can be transformative, helping us to find new passions and interests, and realise our aspirations through further learning.

Organisations of all types and sizes from schools and children centres, through libraries to museums and galleries put on brilliant and creative events. they also showcase ideas and learning opportunities that families can do afterwards. Some Festival events are organised across local areas.

The Festival is co-ordinated by the Campaign for Learning, the organisation that aims to build a culture of learning everywhere.
