Royal OnStage is pleased to present National Geographic Live at the Royal Theatre. National Geographic Live presentations offer students a rare opportunity to experience explorers, photographers, filmmakers, and scientists as they share their personal stories of conservation, exploration, and adventure. This is an opportunity to engage students in real-life topics connected to BC’s curriculum.

Due to the evolving situation with the pandemic, we have made the difficult decision to not move forward with a 2020/2021 season. Rest assured that as soon as it is safe for us to gather again we will once again present a National Geographic Live season. When that time comes we will update the website and be in touch via email.

Each presentation begins at 10:00am at the Royal Theatre and is expected to conclude at 11:15am – 805 Broughton Street, Victoria.
Buses can unload at the front doors of the theatre at 805 Broughton Street. Theatre staff will be on hand to direct traffic and to let drivers know when and where to pick up students. There is no parking for buses, however, so a bus needs to leave the theatre and then return to load.
Seats are reserved once we have received the completed order form and payment. Your seat row and number will be printed on your ticket, please make sure all members of your group sit in their reserved seat. If you have opted to have your tickets mailed, please distribute your tickets in advance to each student to make getting into the theatre more expedient.

Yes, after the presentation the lobby will be open until noon for students to eat their lunch.
