2025 has been a landmark year for Fane UK, defined not just by scale, but by the extraordinary people who made it possible.

More than 475,000 audience members joined us across 508 live shows in the UK, alongside 18,000 virtual viewers tuning in from around the world. Our social media community grew by 57,000 new followers, and together, you shaped the shows in real time — casting 23,576 votes in interactive polls and asking a staggering 88,308 questions that were insightful, inspiring, and often delightfully funny.

We were honoured to welcome an incredible lineup of voices to Fane stages — including Barack Obama, Cynthia Erivo, Andy Murray, Charlie Mackesy, Marian Keyes, Mark Ronson, Margaret Atwood, Jodie Comer, and many more — sparking moments that resonated far beyond the theatre walls.

None of this would have been possible without our audiences. You filled the rooms, joined the conversation, and helped create experiences that will stay with us long after the curtain falls.

Reflecting on the year, Fane UK’s Managing Director Lucy Bond said:

“2025 has been a truly extraordinary year for Fane UK. We sold over 475,000 tickets, but what matters most isn’t the number, it’s the people behind it. From our audiences to our teams, this year has been powered by creativity, care and collaboration. I couldn’t be prouder of what we’ve achieved together, and I’m incredibly excited for what’s still to come in 2026.”

From world-class conversations to unforgettable moments on stage, 2025 proved the power of live storytelling and the vibrant community that makes it possible.
