Meet the Irish Team Who Conquered Everest - In-Store
On Wednesday 2 September 2026, we at Great Outdoors are firing open our doors for one of the most inspiring evenings we've ever hosted. We're welcoming the Irish team who stood on top of the world and they're coming in-store to tell us exactly how they did it.
Book your place for the Mount Everest Team Talk here.
Meet the Team Who Conquered Everest
Adam, Eanna and Padraig reached the summit of Mount Everest — the highest point on the planet at 8,849 metres — with the support of their guide, renowned Irish mountaineer and a proud partner of Great Outdoors: Jason Black. Now they're sitting down with us to share the full story: the highs, the setbacks, and everything it took to get there.
This is a rare chance to hear an Everest expedition told first-hand, by the people who lived it, in a relaxed in-store setting where you can ask your own questions.
What They'll Be Talking About
This isn't just a highlight reel. The team will get into the real detail that makes an expedition like this possible:
- The story and the struggles — what the climb was actually like, from base camp to summit, and the moments that tested them most.
- Gear and kit lists — the equipment they trusted at altitude, what made the cut, and what they'd never leave behind.
- Training and preparation — how they built the fitness, resilience and mindset needed for the world's highest mountain.
- Guiding and mentorship — the role Jason Black played in getting the team safely to the top and back.
Whether you're planning your own big expedition, dreaming about one, or you simply love a great adventure story, there's something here for you.
A Good Cause
Tickets are just €10, and every cent goes to charity — the full ticket fee is being donated to charities chosen by the climbers themselves. So you'll get an unforgettable evening and support a great cause at the same time.
