Discussing science over a drink might as well be the next amazing get together! This is the invitation by the Pint of Science festival, where you can debate scientific topics with experts while savouring a pint. The event runs between 17 and 19 May in Porto, Aveiro, Braga, Guimarães, Lisboa, Coimbra and Viseu, with the particular aspect that only the Invicta offers in-person sessions. Previous registration is mandatory.

This initiative kicks off this next Monday, on 17 May and the main goal is to communicate science through informal conversations. The in-person sessions in the city of Porto are set to take place in the Catraio, Espiga and Selina bars, where 18 experts of different fields will explain their expertise in an uncomplicated manner.

The organisation advances that there are three scheduled sessions per day, at 7 pm, 8 pm, and 9 pm. The themes under debate are in the field of exact sciences and social sciences.

Tickets cost 2.50 euros per session. All sessions require previous registration.

The Pint of Science festival was first established in 2012, in the UK and started in Portugal (Porto and Lisbon) in 2018. The goal is to make scientific issues easy to grasp and debate by the overall population, as it is important for everyone to understand science.

Besides Portugal, the event takes place, simultaneously, in 29 countries, namely Germany, Brazil, The United States of America, Singapore, Kenya and New Zealand,
