Britain's What's On Event Guide
Wildlife Photographer of the Year 61
The world’s finest nature images are revealed as Wildlife Photographer of the Year 61 comes to The Base!
The world-renowned exhibition, now in its sixty-first year and on loan from the Natural History Museum in London, features some of the most exceptional nature photography taken today from across the globe. The exhibition shines a light on powerful and fascinating images that capture hidden animal behaviour, spectacular species and the breathtaking diversity of the natural world. Using photography's unique emotive power to engage and inspire audiences, the images share stories and species from around the world, encouraging a future of advocating for the planet.
PLEASE NOTE: We recommend booking online in advance of your visit – the exhibition can get busy at times and we can’t always guarantee availability for walk-ups.
**Concessions Price: Concessionary rate tickets are available to students, Blue Light Card Holders and Universal Credit claimants. The Blue Light Card concessionary rate is only valid for the card holder’s ticket. The card holder must be in attendance and may be asked to show their card when they arrive at the exhibition.
