The opening night for Peter Kay's huge live comedy tour took place on Friday 2nd December, with the tour already set to continue into 2025. The tour is off to a great start, as Peter received a standing ovation at the Manchester show, which reduced him to tears. He later thanked fans on social media writing: 'It was incredible to be part of such a happy experience.'
Following the incredible response and tickets selling out, the comedian has now added even more dates to the tour with tickets going on sale on Sunday 11th December. The new shows will take place in Newcastle, Birmingham, Glasgow, Leeds, Manchester, Sheffield and London.
