Join science comedy phenomenon ‘Festival of the Spoken Nerd’ for the greatest show under the Sun – literally!

An Evening of Unnecessary Detail brings stand-up comedy, science, maths and extraordinary facts together in a single Venn diagram. With sell-out shows across the UK and over a million podcast downloads, it’s the night where scientists, enthusiasts, miscellaneous experts* and/or comedians talk about whatever they want in outrageous detail, from the Big Bang to Space Telescopes and everything in between.
