RSA Spark Showcase

23rd September 2025, 7-9pm - please arrive at 6.40pm for a 7pm start

RSA Great Room and online via YouTube

We are hosting the private viewing of our 2025 RSA Spark Showcase. This promises to be an unforgettable evening where we bring together our brief partners, leading educators, RSA Fellow reviewers, Royal Designers for Industry (RDI), and importantly, the students who submitted the most outstanding ideas in response to RSA Spark’s purpose-led briefs.

The evening starts in the RSA’s Great Room or online with a formal welcome and a panel discussion. For those of you attending the event in person, you will then be escorted to The RSA Vaults to explore the submissions and speak with the students over drinks and canapes. Guests attending online will be invited to view student submissions via our digital showcase.

The showcase at RSA House will then open to the public 24 September to 23 October.
