# Only hours to go! Book Humanists UK Convention tickets before tonight’s deadline!

**Act fast! General ticket sales for an unmissable Humanists UK Convention 2025 end tonight, Friday 2 May, at 23:59 – and we have fewer than ten tickets remaining.**

Join hundreds of humanists from across the UK in Sheffield from 13–15 June for a weekend buzzing with ideas, debate, and connection.

Book now, before it’s too late: [humanists.uk/convention2025](http://humanists.uk/convention2025).

Sheffield’s Octagon Centre will host the UK’s biggest annual humanist gathering – a vibrant mix of science, politics, culture, and comedy. Expect challenging talks, lively discussions, and a unique chance to meet fellow humanists exploring today’s biggest questions from a rational, compassionate perspective.

Explore critical contemporary issues with leading minds: hear *New York Times* bestselling author **Katherine Stewart** on threats to democracy; physicist **Dr Helen Czerski** on our planet’s oceans; happiness economist **Professor Lord Richard Layard** on wellbeing; author **Will Storr** on the psychology of status; tech entrepreneur **Sara Wahedi** on human-centred tech for good; and **Dr Azeem Ibrahim OBE** on the rise of authoritarianism. Plus, expect compelling contributions from philosopher **Professor Richard Norman**, journalist **Ian Dunt**, AI experts **Professor Kate Devlin** and **Professor Claudia Aradau**, folklorist **Deborah Hyde**, historian **Dr Charlotte Lydia Riley**, astrophysicist **Dr Alfredo Carpineti**, [and many more](http://humanists.uk/convention2025).

**Don’t delay – general tickets sales end tonight. Miss the deadline, and any tickets remaining will be at a higher Late Registration rate. [Secure your spot now](http://humanists.uk/convention2025) for the essential humanist event of the year.**

**Humanists UK Chief Executive Andrew Copson said**:

> ‘The Convention is a highlight of our year, bringing together hundreds of humanists from across the country for a weekend of stimulating discussion, learning, and connection. This year’s programme in Sheffield promises an exceptional range of speakers tackling vital contemporary issues through a humanist lens. With general ticket sales closing tonight, if you’re thinking of joining us, book your place without delay – it’s an event not to be missed.’
