BRIAN COX SETS NEW WORLD RECORD FOR TICKET SALES
Professor Brian Cox has set a new Guinness World Record for the most tickets sold for a science tour after 230,873 people saw his 2019 show Universal. It marks the second time the physicist has broken his record, having previously done so with his 2017 live tour after selling 158,589 tickets, which bettered his own previous record. Starting with Lateral Events in 2013, the shows have grown to become world tours taking in massive arenas such as London’s O2. Now on his sixth tour with Lateral Events, Prof Brian Cox will arrive in New Zealand in December for his latest offering and the most ambitious show to date; HORIZONS – A 21st Century Space Odyssey.
After hearing he had again broken the record, Cox said: “It is wonderful that so many people want to spend an evening contemplating our place in the universe. I’m very proud on behalf of the entire team involved in putting on my tours that we can extend this record.” Cox works to explore the deepest of questions using the latest advances in our understanding of quantum theory, black holes, biology, planetary science, astronomy, and cosmology.
