INTERACT at talks, debates and shows

Come and meet the CERN community. Find out how your country is represented at CERN, have a coffee with one of our scientists, and learn about the Future Circular Collider project and the Middle East's SESAME light-source facility, an example of science for peace in action. All this interspersed with listening to music performed by CERN scientists and staff members, or laughing at comedy by the Big Van Ciencia troupe from Barcelona. For those of you who have worked at CERN, see what the CERN Alumni Network has to offer and connect with the CERN Alumni Relations team.
