About "Horizons"
World-renowned physicist Professor Brian Cox brings his immersive live experience, "Horizons: A 21st Century Space Odyssey," to North America.
"Horizons" takes us on a dazzling cinematic journey. A story of how we came to be and what we can become.
The deepest of questions will be explored using the latest advances in our understanding of quantum theory, black holes, biology, planetary science, astronomy and cosmology. Using state-of-the-art LED screen technology, venues will be filled with images of far-away galaxies, alien worlds, supermassive black holes and a time before the Big Bang.
"Horizons" is a celebration of our civilization, of our music, art, philosophy and science; an optimistic vision of our future if we continue to explore Nature with humility and to value ourselves and our fellow human beings. Brian will once again be joined by co-host of The Infinite Monkey Cage and award-winning comedian Robin Ince, perhaps the only collection of sentient atoms in the observable Universe capable of overseeing a Q&A with an audience of 10,000 people while wearing an old cardigan.
About Professor Brian Cox
Professor Brian Cox CBE is Professor of Particle Physics at The University of Manchester, The Royal Society Professor for Public Engagement in Science and a Fellow of the Royal Society.
As a broadcaster, he has presented a number of highly acclaimed science programs for the BBC including Wonders of the Solar System, Forces of Nature, Stargazing Live and, in 2019, The Planets. He is credited with boosting the popularity of subjects such as astronomy and physics and has garnered a host of accolades for his TV work, including two Royal Television Society awards and a Peabody Award for Wonders of the Solar System.
Brian has also authored a series of best-selling books, including the widely acclaimed Human Universe. Brian broke his own Guinness World Record titles during his last live tour, Universal, for most tickets sold (158,589) for a science tour, and for most tickets sold for a science show (11,433 at The Arena in Birmingham in 2019).

It was great. Brian is one of those guys that make you think. Think about the great stuff. I went there wanting some answers and I came back with more questions, which is probably a good thing.
I loved this show! Aside from being interested in the subject matter, I found Brian cox to be a very engaging presenter who explains concepts in an understandable way. I highly recommend this show!
This felt more like a postgraduate lecture than an entertaining evening for lay people to understand more about the cosmos. A miss unfortunately. moneyback guarantee?
Mind blowing presentation. So informative. So much fun. Professor Cox discusses amazingly complex concepts and boils them down in a way that even middle school students can understand, learn from, and appreciate. You think to yourself after each topic is discussed..."Well duhhhh...so obvious.....who didn't know that?"
Professor Cox is always charming and engaging, and has a way of making even th most complex ideas accessible. And the visuals were stunning and unexpected.
Great fun, almost easy to follow. Most spectacular imagery and it's amazing to see his enthusiasm for the topic
This is an awesome show - paced just right - in a stunning, comfortable venue. The soundtrack was also inspiring
We have rarely had a more stimulating or pleasant evening. Professor Brian Cox is without a doubt, one of the brightest, most inciteful, and engaging personalities in the world. He takes you out of your seat, escorts you through space and time, transcending our mortal constraints, enlightens you, stimulates you, fills your mind with wonder, and returns you safely back into your seat. I wish the evening could go on forever.
A not to miss show! The photos quality was outstanding. The range of topics from cosmology to astrophysics to biology to our place in the university allowed me to talk about it with my biology, chemistry, mathematics, and social studies teacher; and tell them all about something they hadn’t previously known.
