Peter Kay: The Ticket Tidal Wave You Didn't See Coming!

Grab your tickets NOW! Peter Kay is back with more gig dates, but they'll sell out faster than a pint on a Friday! 🍻

Irish comedians have a new reason to laugh as the iconic Peter Kay is set to take to the stage at the Villa Marina! Mark your calendars for 20 and 21 February 2026, because tickets for these much-anticipated shows are flying off the virtual shelves. When the clock struck 10am this morning (23 November), thousands of eager fans overflowed into an online queue, hoping to snag their chance to catch the Bolton-born funnyman in action. Ticket touts can only wish they had a slice of the action as the demand skyrocketed almost instantly!

But that's not all – Peter Kay has decided to expand his already record-breaking comedy tour with new dates popping up all over the UK and Ireland for 2025 and 2026. It must feel like Christmas in November for comedy lovers, as these newly released shows, including the exhilarating nights at the Villa Marina, promise to bring plenty of laughter and joy to fans. Expect the unexpected, as Peter has a real knack for keeping his fans on their toes! He recently announced a series of new dates for next year, making it a comedy tour bonanza.

In fact, just this weekend, fans were left in stitches after the announcement of two additional shows at Manchester’s AO Arena on February 7, 2025. If you thought you could wait to buy tickets, think again! By the time you read this, tickets for Peter Kay's two live shows at the Villa Marina will likely be little more than a distant memory, as many are already crying into their pints after missing out this morning! With up to 28,000 people joining the online queue, it seems everyone wanted a piece of the pie!

To keep the momentum going, the comedian has also added an extra show in Newcastle due to overwhelming demand. For fans in the North East, get ready for the Utilita Arena in August 2025—because when Peter Kay comes to town, it’s bound to be an unforgettable night of rib-tickling comedy! If you somehow manage to snag a ticket (or just grab a good seat at the bar for the atmosphere), don’t forget your best mate to share in the fun!

Did you know that Peter Kay’s first DVD became one of the best-selling comedy DVDs of all time? His unique blend of observational humour and nostalgic personal anecdotes really resonates with audiences. And, in a fun twist of fate, his comedy career started rather humbly in the early 1990s—who would've thought he'd become a household name and sell out arenas across the UK and Ireland like there’s no tomorrow? Cheers to laughter, and good luck securing those tickets next time!
