An Evening with Jamie Laing

Join one of Britain’s most dynamic voices in media, business, and cultural conversation for An Evening with Jamie Laing at the Ultimate Masterclass Festival 2026.

Jamie’s journey — from national TV personality and entrepreneur to author of the widely discussed book Boys Don’t Cry: The A-Z of Everything We Need to Talk About — has been defined by openness, curiosity, and a refusal to shy away from life’s hardest conversations.

In this candid and inspiring live interview at the Music Hall, Jamie will unpack the personal stories and lessons behind his book: a handbook on vulnerability, emotional honesty, resilience, and what it means to grow up and thrive in today’s world.

From overcoming anxiety and loneliness to embracing failure, redefining success, and building meaningful relationships, Jamie speaks to the things we often don’t talk about — and why those conversations matter.

With humour, warmth, and refreshing honesty, this evening promises insight and inspiration for anyone navigating life, work, identity, and connection in the modern age.
