Join us for this year’s World Down Syndrome Day celebration at The Francis Crick Institute, London on Saturday 21st March 2026!
About this Event

Building on the success of last year’s event, we’re excited to bring back an even bigger and brighter programme. We’ll feature brand new talks from leading experts on health and wellness in Down syndrome, alongside inspiring presentations from three young people with Down syndrome. There will be plenty of opportunities to interact with speakers, ask questions, and learn from lived experiences.

Following the popularity of last year’s ArtBox workshop, we’re delighted to offer it again, plus a range of new activities designed to support healthy food and lifestyle choices for people with Down syndrome of all ages. We’ll also have games and sensory play options for babies.

Throughout the day, you can get hands-on with creative and science-inspired activities, and of course, join us for lots of music and dancing.

Lunch will be provided to all attendees.

Please reserve a ticket per person in your family/ group. Capacity at the venue is limited so please only book the amount of tickets you plan to use.

Everyone is welcome! Parents/guardians are responsible for any under 18’s in attendance.

Photographs will be taken at the event for the purpose of future event promotion and dissemination to event attendees. Please let us know if you consent to your photograph being taken during registration.
