After two years spent TV presenting and stage acting, comedian John Bishop has announced he’s heading back on the road. 

His huge UK tour, entitled Back At It, will kick off in Bromley in March, with the stand-up star set to play at a host of venues throughout next year, including two nights at the London Palladium.

Announcing the new tour, the comedian said: “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! I’m looking forward to seeing you all out there on the road.”

How to get John Bishop tour tickets

Fans need to sign up on Ticketmaster by 5pm on Wednesday 29th November to access the presale on Thursday 30th November.

Tickets will then go on general sale on Friday 1st December at 10am.

Announcing the tour on Instagram, Bishop warned fans that it’s “the smallest UK tour” he’s done and that he expects tickets to “go out quite fast”.

“We have managed to pull a tour together. It’s called ‘Back at It’,” he wrote.

“I’m going to be on the road next year. It’s actually probably the smallest UK tour that I’ve done so we’re expecting the tickets to go out quite fast which means if you wanna be in with a chance of gettin’ there first sign up to the mailing list on the link and then you can go onto the presale.”

He continued: “If you sign on the mailing list before 5 o clock on Wednesday we’re doing a pre-sale of the tickets on Thursday, November 30 and then they go onto general release for everyone to buy on Friday at 10am.
