CARTAGENA THINKS: PINT OF SCIENCE 2026

CARTAGENA THINKS: PINT OF SCIENCE 2026

The Pint of Science Festival is an international event that invites renowned researchers to share their knowledge in a relaxed and informal atmosphere. During the three days of the festival, the participants and organizers aim to create a format accessible to everyone. 
The chosen venue for this event is bars around the world! This provides a platform that allows people to learn about and discuss research directly with the researchers themselves. This festival is held annually, simultaneously in coordination with all participating countries and cities. Once again, Cartagena joins the event for its three days, presenting
the work of female scientists from the Polytechnic University of Cartagena (UPCT), grouped under the Association of Young Researchers of Cartagena (AJICT), in an engaging and accessible way.

Organized by: Cartagena Young Researchers Association (AJICT)
In collaboration with: Scientific Culture Unit (UCC) of the UPCT and Cartagena Piensa
