Festival of Archaeology
The Festival showcases the very best of archaeology, with special events right across the UK, organised and hosted by museums, heritage organisations, national and countryside parks, universities, local societies, community archaeologists, Young Archaeologist's Clubs and youth groups.
Festival of Archaeology 2019
We are delighted to announce the 2019 Festival of Archaeology will take place from 13 - 28 July.
Following a year off in 2018, the 2019 Festival of Archaeology is back bigger and better, and will form part of the 75th anniversary of the Council for British Archaeology.
Our new website includes online registration guides and publicity materials for event organisers- so it’s even easier than before to get involved and host an event or create activities for the summer.

Festival events
In 2017 over 1,000 events were put on by 318 organisers across the UK and we want to build on this success for 2019.
