Now in its ninth year, BBC Radio 3's Free Thinking Festival returns to Sage Gateshead from Friday 31 October – Sunday 2 November 2014 for a weekend of provocative debate, new ideas, live music and performance. The festival brings together high-profile figures from the worlds of arts, science, politics and literature to discuss and challenge current thinking on a range of topics, this year focusing on a theme of ‘The Limits of Knowledge’, with lectures and discussions on subjects including the role of the imagination, self-knowledge and the mysteries of the financial world.

BBC Radio 3 transports much of its weekend schedule to Sage Gateshead as part of the festival, allowing Free Thinking audiences the chance to see many of BBC Radio 3’s regular programmes being broadcast live from the venue, including CD Review, In Tune, Live in Concert, Music Matters, Sound of Cinema and Words and Music.

Booking opens on Monday 6 October.
