Dan Snow – Searching for Endurance

BAFTA‑award winning historian, broadcaster, and presenter Dan Snow closes the evening with an extraordinary tale of discovery. In 2022, Dan joined the expedition that located Shackleton’s legendary shipwreck, Endurance — found perfectly preserved 3,000 metres beneath the Antarctic ice after more than a century.

Dan will share the inside story of this remarkable mission:

  • the month‑long search in one of the harshest environments on Earth
  • the cutting‑edge technology that made the discovery possible
  • the emotional and historical significance of finding one of exploration’s greatest lost vessels

Known to millions as the host of History Hit — one of the world’s most popular history podcasts — and Founder of History Hit TV, Dan brings his trademark clarity, curiosity, and storytelling brilliance to the stage. His work with the BBC and his best‑selling book On This Day in History have made him one of the most recognisable voices in public history today.
