Get your ticket (in-person)With rapidly declining birthrates across the Western world and the systematic dismantling of patriarchal family traditions, what will become of fatherhood? Writer Wessie du Toit, UnHerd’s Max Mitchell and Fat White Family frontman Lias Saoudi have all recently become first-time dads. Join them for an evening of frank conversation and big questions about what it means to parent in these anti-paternal times.
Get your ticket (in-person)After October 7th 2023, Britain’s Jews seemed united in solidarity with the Israeli victims of Hamas, even as they began to experience an upsurge of antisemitism, culminating in this month’s Manchester synagogue attack. Fearful for their future, they now also face divisions, with some prior supporters of Israel becoming openly critical of its government’s conduct of the Gaza war and high civilian casualty rate.
Now, while hopes for peace glimmer in the wake of the deal offered by Trump, UnHerd brings together speakers with opposing views to ask a pressing question: does the war mark a turning point for Judaism in the West?
Get your ticket (in-person/livestream)If the polls are to be believed, Zohran Mamdani—a self-described democratic socialist—is poised to become the next mayor of New York City. His history as a police abolitionist, calls for wealth redistribution, and fierce criticisms of Israel have rankled the Big Apple’s old guard, while galvanizing many young Gothamites, including a majority of young Jews.
So: should we fear Mayor Mamdani?
Join UnHerd for an exclusive in-person debate at our Manhattan headquarters, featuring our columnist Ross Barkan and progressive activist and whistleblower Lindsey Boylan (in support of Mamdani) versus the New York Post’s Miranda Devine and National Review’s Caroline Downey (in opposition).
VENUE: This event will be taking place at 245 Fifth Avenue, 26th Floor, New York, NY 10001.
Get your ticket (in-person)Rene Descartes and Blaise Pascal, both 17th century French philosophers, tussled between truth-seeking rationalism and the role of faith and emotion in human experience. This tug of war continues today and to bring some light to its contemporary relevance, join theologian James Orr and former Bishop of Kensington Graham Tomlin for this exclusive live conversation at the UnHerd Club.
Get your ticket (in-person)Alasdair MacIntyre, who died this year, was a Scottish-American philosopher and moral theorist, known best for his seminal book After Virtue (1981). MacIntyre was one of the earliest critics of the fragmented nature of contemporary morality and argued for a return to virtue-based ethics. In this exclusive masterclass, writer Nina Power unpacks MacIntyre’s foundational philosophies and suggests how they might inform a new era of radical politics.
Get your ticket (in-person/livestream)From Farage’s flirtations with Trump to Palantir’s takeover of the NHS, has Britain already become the 51st state of America? As industry, services and politics all cede control to forces across the pond, the question of British cultural independence is more vexed than ever. Historian Helen Thompson and Novara Media’s Aaron Bastani come together to chart the US-ification of our everyday lives, and what happens next.
Get your ticket (in-person/livestream)With the rise of accessible AI and the total ubiquity of smartphones, could the West be entering a post-literate age? And what role might old-school books have in this brave new world? Substack’s Ed West, The Times’ James Marriott and UnHerd’s Kathleen Stock come together to discuss the twilight of literary culture and the dark dawn of scrolling culture.
