Inspire curiosity, spark passion, love learning

Join us as we bring Remake Learning Days to Doncaster for the second year running!  

For a second year Doncaster will be hosting the Remake Learning Days Festival. Taking place over 10 days, right across Doncaster, the festival will offer free and low cost, family-friendly activities and events designed to build knowledge and spark creativity. We want people of all ages to rediscover a love for learning outside of the classroom and join in to inspire curiosity, spark new passions and even discover new hobbies or future career options! 

The festival is being run by our voluntary sector, businesses, organisations community groups and City of Doncaster Council, and using the great assets across Doncaster, these events will be themed around science and technology, arts, crafting and making, history and culture, youth voice, professional development, outdoor learning and sport, and much more. 

We are kick-starting the festival on Wednesday 22nd May 2024, and then running activities through to Friday 31st May 2024.
