It has been five years since we saw Ben Fogle at the Glasgow Pavilion Theatre with Tales From The Wilderness. An incredible night! Thrilled he is back by popular demand with Wild Tour, sharing inspiring and uplifting stories from a life of amazing encounters.
TV STAR BEN FOGLE GOES WILD TO SHARE HIS LIFE CHANGING ENCOUNTERS
Broadcaster and adventurer Ben Fogle will be bringing out his wild side once more as his latest tour heads to Glasgow.
Best known from hit TV shows including Animal Park, Lost Worlds, and New Lives In The Wild, Ben Fogle’s career has taken him to some of the most extreme locations in the world, whether filming for documentaries or tackling some of mankind’s greatest physical challenges.
In BEN FOGLE – WILD, Ben will share stories of hope, possibility, and positivity, taking audiences on a new journey to relive the inspiring and uplifting tales he has encountered along the way – in environments as diverse as the wilderness of northern Sweden, the jungles of Honduras, the hostility of Chernobyl and the mountains of Nepal.
The show promises to be hair-raising, uplifting, and wildly entertaining, as Ben shares the amazing encounters he’s had with people and animals around the world, how they have changed his life, and how he can help audiences discover their own personal Ocean of Possibility.
Speaking about the tour, Ben said: “The adventures, expeditions, and journeys I have experienced over more than 20 years have shaped the man I am today – they have strengthened me emotionally, physically, and mentally and armed me with the skills for life.
“WILD has been an opportunity for me to share some of those life lessons, as well as the stories of the incredible people and animals I’ve met along the way. The audiences in 2023 were fantastic and now I can’t wait to share more of these encounters and get back on the road.”
