Jimmy Carr announces huge UK tour for 2019 and 2020: How to get tickets

Jimmy Carr has announced details of a string of London gigs for 2019 and 2020.

The 8 out of 10 Cats host will embark on a huge tour of the UK, starting in May next year and stretching on until the winter of 2020.

A number of shows in the capital have been included, in Richmond, Bromley, Croydon, Wimbledon, Hammersmith, Greenwich and Brixton.

It will come as part of his Terribly Funny tour which, in-keeping with his reputation for taboo humour, promises “a brand new show [that] contains jokes about all kinds of terrible things”.

The comic, who also hosts Your Place or Mine on Comedy Central alongside Katherine Ryan, is currently in the midst of a huge world tour. The so-called Best Of, Ultimate, Gold, Greatest Hits tour has seen Carr perform a collection of his best loved jokes, as well as new material.

"If it’s funny enough, you can get away with anything," Carr told the Standard when the tour was announced, "Laughter is a reflex and conscience is not. 'That’s wrong, but that’s funny.' It’s a lovely feeling."

How can I get tickets for Jimmy Carr’s 2019 and 2020 London shows?

Tickets will go on sale at 10am on Friday October 26. They will be available for purchase here.
