Second date added as Peter Kay sells out £38-a-time Q&A session

Peter Kay sold out a 3,000-seat venue within six minutes today.

The event, at the Blackpool Opera House, is not even a stand-up performance, but a Q&A session in aid of charity.

Fans snapped up all the tickets for the November 15 event – at a £38.50 a time – almost immediately.

Now a second session has been added on November 14. Click here to buy tickets.

The events – Kay's first live stage appearance since his last tour – are in aid of Salford Women’s Aid Domestic Violence Refuges.

Kay said: 'A friend of mine works for Salford Women’s Refuges, which unfortunately is greatly overlooked as a charity.

'After hearing the shocking statistics and discussing the invaluable work they do I felt it was crucial to try and raise some much-needed funds so they can continue offering vulnerable victims, including children, help when they need it most.

'If I can put on a special night that helps benefit the charity in some way and have some fun in the process, how could I pass on such a good opportunity?'

At the events, fans will be invited to submit questions in advance, as well as voting for their favourite clips of the comedian's work, which will be shown and discussed.
