There were plenty of activities at Campus in the City. Photos by Robin Zahler.

More than 600 people enjoyed Lancaster University’s popular Campus in the City event.

The family-friendly event, held over two days, took Lancaster University’s research to venues in Morecambe and Lancaster with more than 30 activities drawing in the crowds.

Activities included virtual reality experiences, identifying teddy bear ailments with the medical school, creating images from your own movements using AI, clay modelling and lots more – all with the aim of learning more about the University’s research projects.

The event was so popular that feedback showed many visitors stayed for the entire day, captivated by hands-on activities that sparked a desire to learn new things— from writing Chinese characters to building circuits, exploring how sound travels, and understanding how the brain works.

You can follow Campus in the City on socials to be the first to find out about future events by going to Facebook and Instagram.

Here are more photos from the event, held last weekend at More Music in Morecambe and the Storey in Lancaster.
