Scots comedy sensation Kevin Bridges has announced a new stand-up tour which will take in 13 dates in Scotland. The Glaswegian funnyman is set to return to the stage in 2026 with his new show Here If You Need Me. Kicking off in August next year, Kevin will tour across the UK and Ireland until the end of the year, with 44 dates including dates at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro, the Edinburgh Playhouse and Aberdeen’s P&J Arena.
The comedian has consistently shattered box office records with his previous tours, including Overdue Catch-up in 2022, Brand New Tour 2018 and his 2015 tour, A Whole Different Story. Kevin has firmly established himself as one of the nation’s most successful stand-up comedians.
This year the 39-year-old launched his debut North America Tour, performing to more than 40,000 in the states, with a final sold-out show at the iconic Beacon Theatre in New York, but now he has returned home to Scotland and set to perform six times at the OVO Hydro, five times at the Edinburgh Playhouse and two dates at the P&J arena.

Tickets for the Here If Your Need Me tour will go on sale to the general public at 11am on Thursday, December 4 via his official website. There is also pre-sale available for those who wish to grab tickets earlier.
Artist pre-sale will go live at 11am on Monday, December 1, via his website. While venue, promoter and Ticketmaster pre-sales will start at 11am on Wednesday, December 3.
