The Bavard Bar Christmas Special

Kino-Teatr, St Leonards-on-Sea, TN38 0EQ
Wednesday 16th December 2026
What is The Bavard Bar? Well, it has become an institution. The best way to describe it is a delightful blend of TED Talks, comedy, & Radio 4. Sort of...

When you come along to The Bavard Bar, you will hear three regular people share their passions for 15 minutes each. The evening is interspersed with music and audience participation games, such as the "KP Lite" challenge, The "Oojah Kappivvy", and "Make it Stop", amongst others!

Past Bavard subjects range from meteorite hunting to crop-circles, circuit-bending to playing the James Bond theme on Kazoo. You never know what (or who) to expect, as passions (and speakers) are kept secret until the night. There is also a Q&A section after each talk for you to share an opinion, or learn even more about the subject.

A night of non-stop intrigue, complete with not one, but two, short intervals. The bar will be open, & snacks will be available. 
Past speakers have included Robin Ince, Professor Simon Schaffer, Dr Ljiljana Fruk, Cole Moreton and David Bramwell.

A great way to meet new people. Come along!
