At last year’s sold-out Ventnor Fringe event, our expert panel of entrepreneurs, comedians and weirdos cracked ‘The Secret to Happiness’. You can spot the people who attended – we’ve all been smiling ever since.

But times are strange, and storm clouds are gathering. From AI to climate change, and from toxic politics to unhinged billionaires, humanity has never felt so close to the edge.

So how do we survive whatever comes next? How do we remember who we are, remember what’s important, and pull together in the face of so many challenges? And could we, just maybe, start to build something better in the rubble?

Join us and a hand-picked panel, including NHS junior doctor (a psychiatrist) turned comedian, Benji Waterstones, as we work it all out. Yes, we’ll be talking about the end of days – but expect a celebration of humanity, a love letter to what people are capable of.

We might just be OK, after all.
