The world’s favourite historians, Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook, are returning to Australian stages with their wildly popular podcast The Rest Is History live on tour this November and December!
Smart, funny and endlessly curious, the chart-topping podcast sees Tom and Dominic explore the stories of History’s most brutal rulers, deadly battles, and world-changing events. Their deep dives into the world’s most fascinating moments—from the rise and fall of the Roman Empire, the Nazi conquest of Europe and Hitler’s global ambitions, to the French Revolution, the Titanic, and the Norman Conquest of 1066—have captivated millions as they bring the past to life with gripping storytelling and expert analysis as they unpack the moments that shaped our world.
With over 18 million streams and downloads globally in January 2025 alone, The Rest Is History is the #1 history podcast in Australia and New Zealand and one of the most listened-to podcasts of any genre.
Following sold-out shows in 2023, The Rest Is History: Returns promises more unforgettable stories and a front-row seat to history like you’ve never heard it before.
