Events
Throughout the year we run a selection of varied and exciting lithic-related events, which are open to all members.
Please keep checking back for the latest news on our events. Information will also be circulated nearer the time of each event so could we ask you to make sure that we have your up-to-date email address.
Feel free to contact the Events Secretary if you are organising an event which fellow members would be interested in attending – museum or site visits, for instance. We can help you publicise your event to the membership, and provide organisational support.

Our 2025 Annual Conference will take place on 7th and 8th November 2025 in Leicester.

Knapping at Butser
Butser Ancient Farm are kind enough to welcome our society for a knapping weekend in August every year. Practical help and demonstrations are on hand from a professional flintknapper.
Depending on circumstances year-to-year, it may even be possible to stay overnight in the roundhouse, for a truly unforgettable experience!
Other Events
We hold and host other events on a more sporadic basis, sometimes in support of or collaboration with other organisations. Sometimes these are advertised here, sometimes they are emailed to members through our mailing list. Please ensure your contact details are up to date.
Examples of past events and collaborations include:
- “Thames terraces and Palaeolithic archaeology in central London” Guided Walk with Professor Simon Lewis and Dr Claire Harris
- “Exploring Southern England’s Prehistoric Past through Lithics” Handling Session, jointly organised by the LSS and Oxford Archaeology
