Russell Kane at Swansea Arena

Russell Kane

Award-winning British comedian, actor, presenter, and writer Russel Kane is back on the road, announcing his 2024/25 Hyperactive' tour. With untouchable wit and a whole arsenal of gags, this string of dates will surely be as uproarious as his previous The Essex Variant' tour which garnered much critical acclaim.

Rob Beckett at Swansea Arena

Rob Beckett

Comedian, TV presenter and podcaster Rob Beckett heads out with a brand new tour, Giraffe, stretching out for a mammoth run starting in late 2024 all the way through until 2026! Having recently launched a brand new comedy panel show, Smart TV, on Sky Max, the all-rounder is one of the leading figures in UK comedy. His genuine working class style and witty observations on class have proved a massive hit with audiences and viewers from all angles, with Beckett equally at home co-presenting the BAFTAs or Wedding Day Winners as he is onstage comically recounting his past days touring grotty pubs with an empty bank account.

Katherine Ryan at Swansea Arena

Katherine Ryan

Since moving to the UK in 2008, Katherine Ryan has risen to become one of the country's most recognisable comedians. Cutting her teeth on all the usual panel shows, including Mock The Week, Taskmaster et al, she has proven her live chops in two hit specials, In Trouble and The Glitter Room, created and starred in her own Netflix show, The Duchess. Now heading out her fourth tour, Battleaxe catch this razor-sharp modern comedy icon when she brings the laughs to you!

Rhod Gilbert at Swansea Arena

Rhod Gilbert

Hailed as one of the UK's leading stand up talents, Welsh funnyman Rhod Gilbert answered his comedy calling in 2002, deciding to give up his job as a market researcher and take a stand-up comedy course. That same year he made the finals at the Edinburgh Fringe's So You Think You're Funny competition and a whirlwind of newcomer awards followed. In 2005 he won the Chortle Award for Best Breakthrough Act and released his first-ever show 1984 - a riotous depiction of growing up in the fictional Welsh town of Llanbobl.

Greg Davies at Swansea Arena

Greg Davies

From the hilarious head of sixth form in The Inbetweeners to the sardonic host of Taskmaster, Greg Davies has had us in stitches with his delightfully deadpan delivery, managing to elicit laughs with just a crook of an eyebrow. Catch the gigantic (literally, he's 6ft 8) comedian as he sets out on his biggest tour yet in 2025 - Full Fat Legend.
