John Bishop hasn’t delivered any live comedy shows in a while – but he’s back. And he’s really going for it. 

The Liverpudlian local has just confirmed he’ll be hitting the road in March 2024 and playing more than 40 dates throughout the year on a massive tour he has titled: Back At It.

Beginning on March 9 in Bromley, he’ll go on to play dozens of shows before eventually bringing his adventure to an end on November 17 in Tunbridge Wells.

John will no doubt be delivering new comedy material after spending his recent years as a successful TV personality.

He said of the tour: “I’m delighted to be hitting the road again with my new show, ‘Back At It’. I did a few gigs in New York and some over in Ireland and I’ve got the juices flowing again!”

John added: “I’m looking forward to seeing you all out there on the road.”
