The Royal Astronomical Society is proud to present the next National Astronomy Meeting, NAM2025, at Durham University from Monday 7th July to Friday 11th July, 2025. It is organised in conjunction with Durham University’s Centre for Extragalactic Astronomy, the Centre for Advanced Instrumentation, the Institute for Computational Cosmology, the Institute for Particle Physics Phenomenology, and the Department of Mathematical Sciences.

NAM2025 covers the full range of astronomy research in the UK, including the instrumentation and astro-particle communities, as well as other key issues relevant to the UK astronomy community. Beside the UK’s astronomy community, the meeting includes the UK Solar Physics (UKSP), and the Magnetosphere Ionosphere and Solar-Terrestrial (MIST) communities.

It is centrally located in the modern purpose-built Teaching and Learning Centre (TLC) and the opposing Ogden Centre West (OCW) building which hosts the majority of the astronomy research at Durham University.

NAM2025 is a hybrid conference but where the majority of participants are expected to attend in person. By using a hybrid model we aim to allow as many people as possible to experience the conference and learn about the exciting astronomy and space science research being conducted around the UK and further afield.
