Philosophy cafe is a free event where curious people come together to explore challenging ideas in a comfortable space.

Designed as a meeting ground for the intellectually curious, the Globe at Hay hosts a space where diverse perspectives converge to create an atmosphere that stimulates thought and meaningful connections.

Previous discussion topics have included:

• "Generative and conversational artificial intelligence / GenAI and ChatGPT”;

• "Fungi and Philosophy and ‘Entangled life’ by Merlin Sheldrake;

• The logic of true belief;

• How to philosophically respond to despair

• What is happiness?

• Can we devise a philosophical argument to support our defence of the planet from capitalism?

Some events will have guest speakers while most are like round-table discussion groups.

Philosophy is for everyone, and so is our café. No prior knowledge is required; just bring an open mind and a curiosity to explore. New faces are always welcome!
