Deadly Live!

If you have spent any time watching CBBC, you are likely familiar with the Deadly 60 series. Steve Backshall is bringing that same concept to the stage this autumn with his live show, Deadly Live!, which is scheduled to take place at the Brighton Centre on 29 October 2026. It is a production that focuses on wildlife and natural history, structured as an educational experience for families and anyone interested in the natural world.

The show itself is designed to be a high-impact presentation, featuring a mix of scientific experiments, acrobatic performances, and explorations of various predators. The content covers a wide range of creatures, from large cats and birds of prey to snakes and even dinosaurs from the Dinomania segment. It is worth noting for those planning to attend that there are no live animals involved in the performance; the experience relies on these other theatrical elements to convey the information. The doors at the Brighton Centre open at 13:00, with the show officially starting at 14:00.

Regarding the logistics, tickets for the event went on sale on 30 April 2026. If you are considering going, you can find booking information through the official DeadlyLiveTour.com website or via platforms like Ticketmaster. The event is open to all ages, though there is a specific policy stating that anyone under the age of 14 must be accompanied by an adult. It is a straightforward setup for a family afternoon, focusing on the educational and entertainment aspects of the wildlife themes Backshall is known for.
