BritGrad is the annual British Graduate Shakespeare Conference, held each summer at the Shakespeare Institute in Stratford-upon-Avon and online.

It brings together postgraduate researchers from around the world to present their work, hear plenary lectures from leading scholars and practitioners, and take part in a friendly, interdisciplinary community exploring Shakespeare, early modern, and Renaissance studies.

​

Traditionally BritGrad is held at the Shakespeare Institute, an internationally renowned research institute founded in 1951. Postgraduate students studying at the Institute form the committee for BritGrad and schedule all speakers and events.  ​​​
