Darwin College will hold the 2023 Darwin College Lecture Series at the Lady Mitchell Hall and Little Hall, Sidgwick Avenue, Cambridge.

The Darwin College Lectures are popular, each attended by around 600 people, so you are advised to arrive early to ensure a place. Stewards at the door follow a strict admissions policy to ensure compliance with fire regulations. An adjacent overflow theatre, with live TV coverage, is provided for those who cannot be seated in the main hall.

Past lectures

The lectures have been given each year for about 40 years. We have a YouTube channel where past lectures can be viewed at leisure.
