Dates for 2018

Kevin Bridges has announced a new tour for 2018.

The aptly named Brand New tour spans 36 nights in 15 cities, including six hometown gigs in the SSE Hydro in Glasgow and four at London’s Hammersmith Apollo.

The comic says: ‘It’s been three years since my last tour, three tough years of watching the world fall apart thus, I’ve decided, I need to get out of the house more and lend a hand in saving it.

‘With amusing anecdotes and witty observations I’m sure I can save the world or at least provide a decent enough night out. We’ll see.’

His last tour, A Whole Different Story was named the fastest selling ticket 2014 – shifting more than 500,000 tickets across 145 dates, including an incredible 16 nights at The Hydro.

And his 2012 tour, Kevin Bridges – The Story Continues included a nine-show run at the Glasgow SECC Arena as part of the 136 date tour. Both shows were released as DVDs.

This year Bridges has been on the road internationally, primarily in Australia and New Zealand ,as well as performing for Barack Obama at a charity dinner in Edinburgh in May.
