Wednesday 13th May 2026 - Saturday 16th May 2026
It’s 1973, and a young Bill Bryson arrives in Dover to conquer the UK. As he grapples with the eccentric rules of the Bluebird Guest House and encounters Kia Ora, streaky bacon, lemon curd and scotch eggs, he knows it’s where he’s meant to be.
So begins his love affair with Great Britain, meeting the love of his life and eventually making this small island his home. Join Bill as he travels the length and breadth of the land, from Weston-Super-Mare to Milton Keynes, Blaenau Ffestiniog to Glasgow and everywhere in between, meeting a hilarious cast of characters along the way.
Bill Bryson’s memoir Notes from a Small Island spent three years on the Sunday Times bestseller list, sold over two million copies and was voted the book that best represents the UK.
