David Olusoga will be exploring the impact of guns through history
David Olusoga may be playing the long game on Celebrity Traitors at the moment, but he’s just around the corner from going on tour. And it promises to be a hugely exciting and informative experience.
The massively successful historian is best known for such BBC series as A House Through Time and Black and British: A Forgotten History. And for this upcoming tour – A Gun Through Time – the star will be looking at how a single weapon “changed the course of history”.
The gun, he says, shaped “empires, wars, and even criminal underworlds” while influencing “not just battles, but entire societies”. And tickets for this enticing, educational show are out right now.
Olusoga had previously confirmed a string of tour dates taking place this year (in just a few weeks’ time), but he’s now announced even more shows taking place in 2026, including in Leeds, Guildford, Glasgow, Chester, Shropshire, Cambridge, and many other locations (full list below). Fans of the historian, or, indeed, history, buy tickets to the star’s upcoming tour right now using the details below.
