Overview

Competition details

Understand what this Olympiad focuses on, who it’s for, and what to expect.

Founded in 2020 in Houston, TX, the Copernicus Olympiad was established by passionate educators with extensive international experience. The name "Copernicus" comes from the renowned Polish mathematician, physicist, and astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus, who revolutionized our understanding of the cosmos by proposing that the planets revolve around the Sun, challenging the long-held belief that Earth was the center of the Universe.

London’s a sprawling city at the center of everything: art, history, culture—you name it. But what sets it apart from other major hubs are its distinct neighborhoods, each with their own vibe. Spend an afternoon with the fam in Kensington: It’s got museums, parks, and plenty of other kid-approved things to do. Or check out edgy Shoreditch for cool shops and street murals (perfect for photo ops), then head to Soho where you can grab a pint at a pub or hit a club and party ‘til dawn. Food’s a big deal here: Yes, there’s fish and chips, but also next-level curry houses thanks to London’s thriving Bangladeshi community (take your pick from tons of spots on Brick Lane), plus a growing roster of celebrity chef-driven restaurants in posh Mayfair. There’s always something new going on and we’ve got more recs, below.
