The Philosophy Now Festival 2020

Report by Anja Steinbauer

The century-old doors exploded inwards as Rick and I, laden with crates and rolls of paper, pushed into the eccentric Art Deco building. Conway Hall, so familiar from many weird and wonderful philosophy gatherings, was awaiting us in all its solemn charm. The ideal setting for an event that was equally eccentric but also definitely aspiring to awesomeness.

It was the fifth Philosophy Now Festival. In only an hour people would be streaming in.
