Welcome to Maths Fest 2026

Mathematics exists everywhere—in nature, technology, engineering, art, and everyday life. Yet, for many learners, it remains abstract, challenging, and intimidating.

International Maths Fest 2026 aims to change this perception by transforming mathematics into a live, interactive, and enjoyable experience.

After a gap of 19 years, the iconic Maths Fest—initiated by H. N. Upadhyaya—returns to Kathmandu with:

• A renewed vision

• Global collaboration

• A strong commitment to advancing mathematics education in Nepal

This is more than just an exhibition—it is a dynamic learning ecosystem where students, teachers, parents, and enthusiasts can truly experience mathematics.

Mission Statement

To make mathematics accessible, engaging, and enjoyable for everyone by showcasing its real-world applications and inspiring future problem-solvers.

Why Maths Fest Matters

From the ancient Greek Quadrivium to modern science and technology, mathematics has always been the foundation of civilization. However, student interest is declining due to:

• Overly abstract teaching methods

• Limited real-life application

• Lack of hands-on learning

Maths Fest bridges this gap by presenting mathematics as:

• Practical

• Visual

• Experiential

• Engaging

• Relevant to everyday life
