Robin Ince, Dr Hannah Fry, Dr Helen Czerski, Nickesh Shukla, Phillip Ball

Following four sell-out nights in 2017, Robin’s hugely popular Christmas shows return this year with a slightly tweaked title, a new venue and the usual shambles.

These shows have always been about celebrating the best that humanity has to offer and our curiosity about the universe around us. That’s something The Cosmic Shambles Network has always been about too. We’re also at a time in human history where positive curiosity has never been in more demand. So join Robin this December as he presents a heady mix of science, comedy, poetry, music and much much more.

With a different mix of special guests every night you will leave with a song in your heart (technically, it won’t be your heart. If it is your heart, that might be evidence of a murmur) and a reading list in your pocket. As always profits from the shows will go to chosen charities, which this year are Mind and Two Wheels for Life.
