Paddy McGuinness is returning to stand-up comedy with a new tour.

His promoters say: "One of the country's best-loved and most popular comedians Paddy McGuinness has today announced a major UK tour, his first since 2016! Starting in Blackburn next October, Paddy's long-awaited return to stand-up will see him perform 40 dates across the UK in 2024 and 2025 including a show at London's prestigious Palladium."

McGuinness himself says: "It's been eight years since my last tour and there's lots of things to laugh about! I'm looking forward to getting back in front of a live audience, along with running the gauntlet of cancel culture, click bait and fake news!"
