#LNdW 2025
The 22nd Long Night of the Sciences will take place in Dresden on June 20 from 17:00 to 24:00. Organizational preparations began at the beginning of February. This means that the co-organizers of the TUD can once again enter their event offers in the event database. Since there will be no printed program booklet this year, there is no editorial deadline, but TUD co-organizers are still asked to enter their event offers by mid-April. This way, they can be made even more visible in the TUD event flyer. Further, current information and contact persons can be found in the internal area.
