BOOKING:
ALL TICKETS ARE NOW SOLD OUT.
Discount tickets (state schools only) were priced at £16 per student.
Regular tickets are priced at £24 per student.
Inside Maths is not VAT registered.
Please note that Inside Maths 2025 received external financial support that subsidised the price of the tickets. Unfortunately we were not able to attract funding for 2026 – this reflects in the price of the tickets. Without the external financial support, the tickets need to be more expensive than in 2025 to make the event financially viable.
The day is also now an hour longer than it was in 2025.
State schools:
There are 100 discount tickets available exclusively for state schools.
ADULTS:
Every school can book up to two adult tickets free of charge (if you need more than this let us know).
