The venue

The iconic 19th century McEwan Hall in Edinburgh sets the perfect stage for our event. The McEwan Hall was presented to the University in 1897 by William McEwan, not only as a ceremonial hall for graduations but also as a gift to the people of Edinburgh.

In recent years the hall was completely refurbished to suit all the needs for large events such as ours.

After you register you will get access to our ClimateLaunchpad app with detailed information about the venue, including floor maps.

Things to do in Edinburgh

If you find some time to discover the city, it is nice to know that Edinburgh offers free entry to many galleries, museums and attractions, such as the National Museum of Scotland, Scottish National Galleries and St Giles Cathedral. Or find one of the parks and gardens. We can especially recommend the magical Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh.

The Independent made a nice list with 10 top things to do.

We're SOLD OUT. And it's amazing

The event is sold out, but we would not be ClimateLaunchpad if we did not come up with a solution to have you join us the climate neutral way: catch the live stream and spot the next unicorns.

LIVE: November 1-2nd
