Peter Kay has announced an extra Leeds show to keep up with rampant demand for his huge new tour of the UK and Ireland. The comedy legend will be stopping off at the city’s First Direct Arena for three nights in January, May and December 2023, with tickets for the third show soon to go on sale.

Kay’s The Better Late Than Never tour kicked off at Manchester’s AO Arena this month. Opening night saw the Bolton funnyman brought to tears during what was his first live comedy tour in 12 years.

Kay announced the new shows on BBC Radio this week. Here’s everything you need to know including dates, venue and how to get tickets.
