The 2026 European Space Agency Open Day in the UK will take place on Saturday 10 October.
Held at ESA’s European Centre for Space Applications and Telecommunications (ECSAT) in Oxfordshire, the event will give visitors a unique chance to see first-hand how expert teams at the site are using space to improve daily life and supporting European space exploration efforts.
It will mark the second Open Day to be hosted by ECSAT, following the first edition in 2024. You can see the highlights of the 2024 ESA Open Day at ECSAT in the video below. More information on how to book tickets for the 2026 ESA Open Day at ECSAT will be released soon.
