About this event
28 years on the road. 36,000 miles on foot. Deadly jungles. Frozen seas. One extraordinary mission.
In 1998, British adventurer Karl Bushby set out from Chile to walk all the way home to Hull, England, making two promises: no transport to advance his journey and no returning home until he arrived on foot.
From the Darién Gap and frozen Bering Strait to a swim across the Caspian Sea, Karl has faced danger, sacrifice and seemingly impossible odds.
Now hear his incredible story live on stage. A gripping, inspiring tale of human endurance, British grit and determination that refuses to break.
VIP MEET & GREET
