Gyles Brandreth is one of Britain’s most beloved and endlessly entertaining voices. A broadcaster, bestselling author, former MP, and renowned raconteur, he is celebrated for his dazzling command of language, encyclopaedic knowledge of people and history, and an ability to turn any room into a shared moment of laughter and delight. Few speakers can combine intelligence, irreverence, and sheer warmth with such effortless ease.

In after-dinner appearances and in-conversation formats, Gyles delivers stories that sparkle, drawing on encounters with royalty, writers, politicians, performers, and eccentrics from every corner of public life. His performances are fast, funny, and richly human, weaving poetry, humour, trivia, and insight into an experience that feels both intimate and theatrical. Audiences leave energised, uplifted, and quoting him long after the evening ends.

He speaks to audiences who want joy with brains, comedy with class, and celebrity with genuine substance.
