Greg Davies, celebrated for his towering presence and equally monumental wit, is set to charm audiences across the UK and Ireland with his highly anticipated return to the stage. January 2025 marks the commencement of his first new stand-up show in seven years, aptly titled Full Fat Legend. Embarking on what is poised to be his most extensive live tour to date, Davies will grace the stage for an impressive 55 dates, showcasing his comedic prowess in prestigious venues, including the iconic Royal Albert Hall and The OVO Wembley Arena in London, among others.
Davies, a multifaceted talent, has left an indelible mark on British comedy through his diverse roles—from the formidable Taskmaster in Channel 4’s Taskmaster, to his memorable performances in The Cleaner, Never Mind the Buzzcocks, Man Down, Cuckoo, and the beloved The Inbetweeners. His unique blend of exuberant confessional comedy, marked by a delightful propensity for the absurd, has not only captivated television audiences but has also made his previous stand-up specials, including 2018’s Greg Davies: You Magnificent Beast, critical and commercial successes.
The Full Fat Legend tour promises to be a culmination of Davies’ comedic evolution, offering both new and loyal fans a rare opportunity to experience his humor in its most pure and unfiltered form. Critics have lauded Davies’ live performances for their ‘capacity to surprise and delight’ (Brian Logan, The Guardian) and have hailed him as a ‘ferociously funny’ (Steve Bennett, Chortle) and ‘blisteringly funny’ (Ben Williams, Time Out) force in comedy. His storytelling, imbued with hilarious and touching insights, has been praised for not just relying on name recognition but for consistently delivering ‘the comic goods’ (James Kettle, The Guardian), cementing his status as one of the kingpins of British comedy.
Tickets for the Full Fat Legend tour are now available for presale, with general sale tickets going live shortly. Given Davies’ unparalleled ability to weave humor with heartfelt anecdotes, this tour is not just an event but a celebration of comedic artistry.
