Kendal Mountain Events come to The Met for an evening of adventure and human connection.

Experience the best of the world’s stunning landscapes through a curated selection of Kendal Mountain festival award-winning short adventure films. But it’s not just about exploration, storytelling is at the heart of this event. Alongside these powerful films, adventure speakers and local community groups will take the stage to share their own personal stories, offering a deeper connection to the people behind the adventures.

Joining the stage will be Mitch Hutchcraft. Former Royal Marine Mitch Hutchcraft recently completed his ‘record-breaking’ triathlon. This epic and one-of-a-kind challenge involved swimming the English Channel, cycling 10,000km from France to India, and trekking 900km from the Indian coast to Kathmandu, completing the challenge by climbing 350km from Kathmandu to the summit of Everest! Through the challenge, Mitch has been raising money for SAVSIM, a wildlife conservation organisation for which he is an ambassador, which also provides mental health support to veterans.

Whether you’re an avid explorer or simply someone who cherishes the power of storytelling and the beauty of nature, the Kendal Mountain Tour 2026 promises to leave you inspired and moved by the shared human spirit of adventure.
