Hosted by Oxfordshire Careers Hub, Careers Fest is the region’s most anticipated and exciting careers event. It will take place on 19-20 March at The Kassam Stadium, with a ‘twilight’ session for parents and careers on 19 March from 16:00-19:00.
We’re delighted to introduce Velocity Football as a headline sponsor of Careers Fest 2025. Their generous support has helped to fund transport costs for schools and colleges visiting Careers Fest during the day, enabling more students to attend.
