Peter Kay 2023 tour: How to get tickets to Cardiff International Arena shows - full list of dates

Peter Kay has announced his first tour of the UK and Ireland in 12 years, and sadly Bristol has missed out on the circuit. All is not lost if you’re desperate to catch the comedy legend’s big return though - he’ll be playing two of his Better Late Than Never live shows at Cardiff International Arena which is just 50 minutes away from Bristol by car or train.

Kay has avoided the spotlight since 2017 when he cancelled a UK tour due to “unforeseen family circumstances”. But the 49-year-old announced he would be returning to stand-up during an ad break during the series launch of ITV’s I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! over the weekend.

Cardiff is the Bolton-born funnyman’s 10th stop on the new tour. The International Arena is in the city centre on Mary Ann Street and just a short walk from the train station, making it easily accessible for those arriving from Bristol.

Here’s everything you need to know including dates, venue and how to get tickets.
