Event Description

Come one, come all to the Northern Ireland Raspberry Jam!

In collaboration with the School of Physics and Mathematics at Queen’s and the Northern Ireland Raspberry Jam team, these free monthly events involve tinkering, coding, electronics and generally just having a stack of fun making stuff!

Whether you want to try out computer programming for the first time, hack some electronics or just generally have some fun inventing, we have something for everyone!

All equipment is provided and we have activities for ages 6-106, from complete beginners right up to seasoned Pi experts. Plus, like all our Raspberry Jam events, it is completely free! So what are you waiting for?

For child safeguarding purposes, all children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult through the event.

What is a Raspberry Jam?

A Raspberry Jam is an event for kids/adults of all ages to come together and learn a bit more about the Raspberry Pi and coding/electronics in general.

I have no previous experience with coding/electronics/Raspberry Pi?

That is no problem! All our Raspberry Jams are suited for beginners, right up to Pi exports, plus all equipment is provided. All you need to bring is yourself.

How can I get there? Can I take public transport?

The Maths and Physics Teaching Building is very easy to get to by car, or by public transport.

This event is run in collaboration with the School of Mathematics and Physics at Queen’s University and the School of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Queen’s University.

The Northern Ireland Raspberry Jam wouldn’t be possible without support from Institution of Engineering and Technology, Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Northern Ireland Department of Communities, Nitec Solutions and Farset Labs.
