About us
The Festival of Education is a global celebration of learning, ideas, and inspiration for educators at every stage of their journey. Founded in the UK in 2010 by Wellington College, the Festival has become one of the most respected and vibrant professional development events in education. What began as a single event has now grown into a global series, with Festivals held annually in the UK, USA, China, and Thailand—and more international editions on the horizon. Each Festival brings together a diverse community of educators, thought leaders, and changemakers to explore the big ideas shaping the future of education. With hundreds of speakers and thousands of attendees across our global locations, the Festival offers an inclusive platform for professional growth, collaboration, and connection. At the heart of the Festival is a belief that learning should be inspiring, engaging, and fun. From challenging conversations to expert insights and powerful moments of connection, the Festival of Education is where those who inspire find their own inspiration.
