Astronomy on Tap Turku
Astronomy on Tap Turku is a public event for everyone interested in space sciences, from seasoned astronomy fans to curious wanderers just along for the ride.
We are happy to present the launch event for the first AoT satellite in Finland, on the 19th of May 2026 in Panimoravintola Koulu, and we are opening with a (big) bang: Our host for this session will be the 2011 Nobel Prize in Physics Laureate, Dr. Brian Schmidt.
Join us to discuss astronomical concepts in an engaging and fun manner accessible to all – in a relaxed bar atmosphere over pints of beer.
Our speakers:
⭐️ Petri Väisänen director of FINCA, from the University of Turku (talk in Finnish)
⭐️ Paul Groot Radboud University
⭐️ Heloise Stevance University of Oxford
The event also includes on-theme pub games and a quiz! Free admission for all.
We’re launching the event alongside IAU Symposium 406.
