Join the science comedy trio of stand-up mathematician Matt Parker, experiments maestro Steve Mould and geek songstress Helen Arney as they try out nerdy new material, live and under-prepared.

An Evening of Unnecessary Detail is, in short, an event where 80% of the words in the title start with a vowel. Of the 16 unique letters in the title, 31.25% of them are used more than once. If you are enjoying this level of detail, it’s likely that you will also enjoy An Evening Of Unnecessary Detail.

An Evening of Unnecessary Detail is, in short, an event hosted by Festival of the Spoken Nerd: Matt Parker, Steve Mould and Helen Arney. Each of them have 10 letters in their names. 

An Evening of Unnecessary Detail is, in short, an event where scientists, enthusiasts, miscellaneous experts* and/or comedians talk about whatever they want to. By attending this event, you revoke the right to complain that there is too much detail.
