As part of the Royal Scottish Geographical Society’s ‘Inspiring People’ talks, the RSGS Ayr Branch welcomes best-selling travel writer Dan Richards. Join them for an evening of storytelling, adventure, and exploration as Dan discusses his latest book, Overnight, an illuminating look at the nocturnal workings of the UK and beyond. A chronicle of small hours spent in the company of bakers, broadcasters, emergency workers, sailors, drivers, postal workers, young parents and bats, Dan reveals the unseen service, labour and care that keeps society moving through the night.
Atmospheric, surprising and full of wonder, this will also be a journey into insomnia, darkness, creativity and the magic of the nocturnal world. A fascinating insight into the overnight undertakings we rarely notice – but could not do without.
Tickets will also be available to buy at the door with cash or card.
