Hinkes On UK Tour

Alan on Annapurna's summit after a record-breaking ascent last year

Everest 8,000-metre Challenge climber Alan Hinkes is on tour in selected venues over November and December in the UK and Ireland.

Alan's, who's just two summits away from becoming the first Briton to knock off all 14 of the world's 8,000ers will be visiting Norwich, Newcastle, Penrith, Lewes and Belfast with his 'Challenge 8,000 - Everest 50 Years On' live show.

With news of his latest expedition to Kangchenjunga earlier this year, previously unseen footage from his record breaking Annapurna summit and a first hand account of the Everest celebrations in Nepal earlier this year, it should make for a good evening.
