Lateral Events

Lateral specialises in the following three areas of event management:

+ Corporate Event Management

Lateral has specialist expertise across conference management, design, planning and delivery, including exhibitions, road shows, launches, builds, social programs, registration, accommodation, marketing, and event technology.

+ Theatre Shows

Lateral invented ‘Intellectual Entertainment’; writing, producing and promoting spectacular theatrical productions with globally recognised personalities, each a leader in their field.

In February 2026, beloved author Bill Bryson toured in Singapore, New Zealand, and Australia with Lateral, with each and every show selling out. Bill regaled us with the latest science from a Short History of Nearly Everything 2.0, plus, his travel exploits and what makes Bill, uniquely Bill.

After performing his smash-hit show ‘Horizons’ to nearly half a million people across the world, Professor Brian Cox is back with his new world tour Emergence, touring Australia, New Zealand and Singapore in May and June 2026.

After highly successful tours in Australia and Canada, Prof Alice Roberts will tour ‘From Cell to Civilisation’ across the UK in November 2026. Alice said “I’m really excited to start touring my new spectacular theatrical live show in the UK in November 2026. It’s a show about who we are, as humans. I’m going to go way back into our past and look at our origins which we can trace back all the way to the origins of life itself. Four billion years of evolution in one evening. I’ll bring genetics, archaeology and the story of all living things in a new format; a theatrical live show that really brings science to live in a spectacular fashion”.

Lateral’s live intellectual entertainment performances are the purest form of storytelling – taking audiences on a journey of discovery and learning. Collective moments of intellectual discovery bring the audience together with a deep social connection that no amount of digital media or AI innovation can replicate.

THE LATERAL PURPLE +

Purple, the colour associated with nobility, luxury, power, ambition and representing creativity and wisdom.

Purple is exemplified as a plus sign within the Lateral ‘a’ and a plus symbol on Lateral’s core projects.

As an events agency, Lateral closely considers the importance of the integration of creativity and wisdom in all we do. The purple + is our constant reminder to strive for perfection, to earn an A+.
