Think you know what a wildlife filmmaker looks like? Think again!

The fearless female storytellers behind some of the world's best-loved wildlife documentaries are hitting the road for a new adventure, as Wild Women Live – The Tour heads to venues across the country in 2027, including Leamington Spa.

A cast of acclaimed female presenters, filmmakers, camera operators and storytellers, drawn from the BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Sky, Netflix and National Geographic, will share their inspiring stories, extraordinary challenges and the secrets of how they bring Mother Nature to life on screen.

The all-new tour will head to 29 venues across the country through the Spring, including a date at Leamington Royal Spa Centre on Wednesday April 14.

Fronting the tour are broadcaster Michaela Strachan (The Really Wild Show, Countryfile, Springwatch), and wildlife camera operator and presenter Anna Dimitriadis (Big Cats 24/7, Tiger Island), who is equally at home filming big cats at close range or diving beneath Antarctic ice. Joining Anna and Michaela on stage in Leamington, as they shine a long-overdue spotlight on the women behind the lens and in front of the camera, will be conservationist Megan McCubbin and broadcaster Naomi Wilkinson.

Tickets are on sale now online and direct from venues.

From sweltering jungles to frozen Arctic landscapes via Britain's own coastlines and countryside, these pioneering women have captured the beauty, drama and hidden lives of the natural world – bringing their particular female perspectives to some of the world's most-loved wildlife programmes.

Speaking about the new tour, Anna said: "The women we are bringing together for this tour come from different disciplines and generations – but what unites us all is courage, exceptional skill, resilience and a determination to look more closely at Mother Nature's wonders.

"Women have long been at the heart of the world's greatest wildlife storytelling – and this is our opportunity to share our experiences of bringing the wonders of nature into millions of homes, and we cannot wait to get out there and tell these stories."

Paying tribute to the cast's diverse experiences, Michaela added: "Our wild women span an incredible range of work within natural history; field science, long-lens, underwater and drone cinematography, environmental investigation, conservation campaigning, children's storytelling and the creation of wildlife films audiences around the world.

"I am so excited to bring us all together to create a show which is inspiring, candid and alive with the humour and unpredictability of working in the wild.

"Wild Women Live is for anyone who has ever marvelled at the natural world on screen – as well as being an invitation to the next generation of girls and young women to imagine themselves behind the lens, in the field and at the forefront of conservation."

Wild Women Live is sponsored by the RSPB and Volvo.

Beccy Speight, chief executive of the RSPB, said: "The RSPB has a long and proud history of women doing incredible things for nature, from our founders, Emily Williamson, Etta Lemon and Eliza Phillips who started the organisation to protest against the use of bird feathers in fashion, to a host of amazing women working at every level of the charity ever since.

"We're thrilled to be supporting the tour, which I'm sure will not just be immensely entertaining but great inspiration for people to get out and experience nature for themselves- maybe to even start their own 'wild' career!"
