It will be hosting its annual Durrell Lecture, Wild Tales with patron Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal, set to speak at the event on 4 November.
The year 2025 also concludes the Rewild Our World strategy which was launched by The Princess Royal back in 2017.
Commenting on the event, Durrell CEO, Rebecca Brewer said: "Our 2025 Durrell Lecture is set to be a truly inspirational evening.
"We are delighted to welcome our patron, Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal, to speak at this momentous event.
