WOMAD (http://womad.co.uk/) is a cultural festival that has been running since the early 1980s. It spans most of the culture, but until our introduction of the Physics Pavilion in 2016 and with the exception of environmental talks, it generally lacked science. The initial aim of the 2016 pilot was to lead to a fuller engagement from CERN in 2017 and onward; this has met with success. The second aim was to spread the idea to the sister festivals around the world. WOMAD Adelaide will have a similar activity and similar approaches have been set up in Denmark and Slovakia.After a highly successful Pavilion in both 2016 and 2017, we have been asked to return 'bigger and better' as a fixture at the festival, used in its pre-publicity. The earlier objective to establish an explicitly science strand in the broad WOMAD cultural festivals has been met.The total footfall in 2017 over 3 days was ~6400, an increase from ~4000 the previous year, due to an increase in tent and gazebo capacity. For the next events, the two previous aims remain.The overall aims are to engage a broad family audience with the ideas behind STFC science and physics in general; to excite them with the possibilities and concepts; and to offer smaller groups to join in activities illustrating the science and technologies.

WOMAD（http：//womad.co.uk/）是一个文化节，自20世纪80年代初以来一直在运行。它涵盖了大部分文化，但直到我们在2016年引入物理馆，除了环境讲座，它通常缺乏科学。2016年试点的最初目标是在2017年及以后实现CERN更全面的参与;这已经取得了成功。第二个目标是将这个想法传播到世界各地的姐妹节。WOMAD阿德莱德也将举办类似的活动，丹麦和斯洛伐克也采取了类似的做法。在2016年和2017年的展馆非常成功之后，我们被要求将“更大更好”作为电影节的固定装置，用于其前期宣传。早期的目标是在广泛的WOMAD文化节中建立一个明确的科学链，这一目标已经实现。2017年3天的总客流量约为6400人，比前一年的约4000人有所增加，这是由于帐篷和凉亭容量的增加。在接下来的活动中，前两个目标仍然存在。总的目标是让广大的家庭观众参与STFC科学和物理学背后的思想;用可能性和概念激发他们;并提供更小的团体参加说明科学和技术的活动。
