For the first time since the release of the film “Touching the Void”, Joe Simpson will speak publicly at The Outdoors Show about his epic struggle for survival in the Peruvian Andes which has since entered mountaineering legend. Other celebrity guests attending the show will be top British climber Leo Holding, two-time Olympic Rowing Gold Medallist James Cracknell, TV Presenters Simon King and Kate Humble and adventurer Ben Fogle.
New for 2010 is the exciting introduction of TriLive, the only UK triathlon show north of London. The area will play host to exhibitors and experts from the sport and provides the perfect opportunity for visitors to learn how to get involved in the demanding and rewarding world of triathlon.
Back by popular demand is the spectacular SkyMasters competition showcasing elite climbers as they race head-to-head on a floating overhanging course set in the rafters of The NEC. The Ice Climbing wall returns providing a tough and challenging opportunity for visitors to prove they have the strength to tackle one of nature’s most difficult ascents. For those wanting to embrace the elements, the Outdoors Show has also re-introduced the Wilderness Camp attraction, offering show-goers the chance to learn survival skills for dealing with the extreme terrains of the planet including Arctic igloo living, desert animal tracking, rabbit skinning and lots more.
With climbing walls galore, hundreds of outdoors exhibitors, fashion shows, the new TriLive Duathlon to watch or take part-in and The Wilderness Camp, this year’s Outdoors Show is the must-attend event of the year for those with a spirit for adventure.
