Paid tickets help cover essential running costs, while free and pay-what-you-can options are also available to ensure inclusivity. \u00a0<\/p><p>Death is of course something that will affect every one of us but can still be extremely challenging to discuss.\u00a0 Lifting The Lid offers audiences the opportunity to find out as much or as little as they like, allowing people to dip in and out as they feel comfortable. We hope this annual event continues to encourage an acceptance of the inevitability of loss and impermanence, and removes some of the fear of talking about death and dying so people can ask questions and talk openly and honestly about their experiences.<\/p>","urlTitle":"tickets-and-2024-programme-available-now","url":"\/blog\/tickets-and-2024-programme-available-now\/","editListUrl":"\/my-blogs","editUrl":"\/my-blogs\/edit\/tickets-and-2024-programme-available-now\/","fullUrl":"https:\/\/lifting-the-lid.teemill.com\/blog\/tickets-and-2024-programme-available-now\/","featured":false,"published":true,"showOnSitemap":true,"hidden":false,"visibility":null,"createdAt":1727172038,"updatedAt":1727172453,"publishedAt":1727172452,"lastReadAt":null,"division":{"id":308281,"name":"Lifting The Lid"},"tags":[],"metaImage":{"original":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/yc86ijeegzz3qr567lc2teb2be4ai31ohltksdcnzhizkwlr.png","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/yc86ijeegzz3qr567lc2teb2be4ai31ohltksdcnzhizkwlr.png.jpg?w=1140&h=855","banner":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/yc86ijeegzz3qr567lc2teb2be4ai31ohltksdcnzhizkwlr.png.jpg?w=1920&h=1440"},"metaTitle":"","metaDescription":"","keyPhraseCampaignId":null,"series":[],"similarReads":[{"id":32856,"title":"LIFTING THE LID INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL OF DEATH & DYING.
