SciFest is a National STEM Fair Programme that inspire and promote excellence in STEM in second-level schools.

Established in 2006, SciFest was set up to encourage an interest in, and love of, the STEM subjects. It is designed to be as inclusive and accessible as possible. SciFest is now implemented at four distinct levels. Students are gathered at local/regional/national and international level to present and display their scientific investigations during one-day forum.
