Bolton comedy star Paddy McGuinness has announced a major UK stand-up tour - his first since 2016. Paddy has announced his long-awaited return to comedy will see him perform 40 dates across the UK in 2024 and 2025.
The tour will start in Blackburn, and will include nights at The Lowry in Salford as well as London's prestigious Palladium. Paddy started his career in comedy, but in recent years has been busy with a host of TV shows.
He first shot to fame in Phoenix Nights alongside his pal and fellow comedy star Peter Kay. The pair would go to reunite for hit spin-off Max and Paddy following the exploits of the bouncers from the Phoenix club.
