When did Peter Kay announce his return to stand-up?

Peter's comeback was announced during an advertisement break in the series launch of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! on ITV on Sunday, November 6, 2022.

The funny man said: “It’s good to get back to what I love doing best, stand-up comedy and if there’s ever a time people need a laugh it’s now.

“And with the cost of living at an all-time high, ticket prices are starting from £35. The same price they were on my previous tour in 2010.”

This is Peter's first live tour since 2010, where he still officially ranks with the Guinness Book of World Records as the biggest-selling comedy tour of all time, with him playing to over 1.2 million people.

He was then due to embark on a series of shows back in 2017 before cancelling due to unforeseen family circumstances.

Since then he has remained away from the spotlight but has made some surprise performances at small shows and charity events.
