Bill Bailey tour 2024: Comedian announces UK and Ireland tour - how to get tickets & full list of tour dates

Comedian Bill Bailey has announced a brand new UK and Ireland tour that will begin next year in February and end in March. The show focuses on the "error-strewn, distracted, crumb-festooned, sometimes magnificent history of human thought".

As well as being best known for being a comedian, Bill Bailey, real name Mark Robert Bailey, is also a musician and an actor, also known for his role as Manny in the sitcom Black Books and his appearances on the panel shows Never Mind the Buzzcocks and Have I Got News for You.

The show’s blurb says: "At a point in our evolution when it seems as if we’re sleepwalking into a world where humans might be redundant, and much of what we do can be done better and more efficiently by machines, what better time to celebrate our own flawed humanity.

“And who better a guide to lead us than Bill... To take us on a jaunt through the error-strewn, distracted, crumb-festooned, sometimes magnificent history of human thought and how it might help us survive in this brave new world.

“A magical, musical mystery tour of the human mind, along with some other pressing matters about whales, biophilia, unrequited love and other thoughts. Amplified With Music. Welcome to Thoughtifier!"
