The Beloved Comedian Peter Kay Is Coming Back To Ireland After Eight Years

One of Britain's best loved comedians, the award winning actor, writer, author and producer Peter Kay is finally returning to stand-up comedy after eight long years, and he's just announced two Irish dates for 2018.

His last tour in 2010, which still officially ranks with the Guinness Book of World Records as the biggest selling comedy tour of all time, played to over 1.2 million people. 

Here's when Peter Kay will take to the stage:

Friday 1st February 2018: Dublin 3 Arena 

Saturday 2nd February 2018: Dublin 3 Arena  

So why a return to stand-up now?

 Peter says: 'I really miss it. I know how lucky I am to be making television series and have really loved these past few years working on Car Share but I miss doing stand-up. As terrifying as it is, when it works there's nothing more fun and exciting. Plus, a lot has happened in the last eight years, with Trump, Twitter and my Nan getting her front bush trimmed at the age of 96. I can't wait to get back up on stage'

Tickets for the tour go on sale Sunday 19th November at 10am and are available from www.ticketmaster.ie and outlets Nationwide.
