European Researchers’ Night 2023 was developed at the National Museum of Natural History and Science of Lisbon, Portugal, with the motto “Science for Everyone (SCIEVER)—Inclusion and Sustainability”. The event promotes the relevance of science and research by focusing on the social, economic, and environmental dimensions of sustainability and inclusion and bridging the gap between scientists, students, and civil society. Our study aims to understand the impact of the event on 30 students from a degree in Basic Education, who completed a questionnaire before and after the event. Data collection was focused on the audience’s expectations and engagement with the activities and the perceived value of such events. The students attended the event as a group, and the individual experiences described were similar: the importance of the European Researchers’ Night in raising awareness of science in initial teacher training. The findings may have implications in terms of curricula revision, education research, and education policies
