An Evening with Steven Pinker

Steven Pinker, the acclaimed Harvard cognitive psychologist and author of The Better Angels of Our Nature and Enlightenment Now, is coming to Australia for the very first time for a three-city speaking tour.

Across Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane, Pinker will explore the forces shaping human progress, the role of reason in our turbulent times, and why optimism is still a rational choice. In a rare live appearance, you'll experience his ideas firsthand: unfiltered, thought-provoking, and deeply relevant to our shared future.

Secure your place for a night of ideas, insight, and conversation with one of the world’s most influential thinkers.
