Ricky Gervais: Cambridge gig date announced
Comedian Ricky Gervais has announced extra dates for his Armageddon show world tour - and tickets will go on sale this week.
He will play the Cambridge Corn Exchange on May 22.
Tickets will be available starting with a Live Nation pre-sale beginning Wednesday, March 29 at 10am local time. The general on sale will begin Friday, March 31 at 10am local time on livenation.com. Tickets for previously announced dates are available now on livenation.com. Ricky's last Cambridge gig sold out in minutes.
The acclaimed British comedian has already visited some of the biggest venues in the UK across the Armageddon tour, and today announces further UK dates in Cambridge, Leeds, Manchester, Cardiff, Nottingham, Liverpool, Birmingham and Bristol. In the autumn, he will return to London for four dates at the prestigious London Palladium (September 13 to 16) and a massive show at London’s OVO Wembley Arena (October 6).
With some of the biggest European venues already under his belt in Amsterdam, Prague & Helsinki, Gervais now announces further arena gigs across Europe for 2023, in Vienna, Dublin, Barcelona, Copenhagen, Oslo, Lisbon, Stockholm, Berlin and Munich.
He was already lined up to play two sell-out shows at NY’s Radio City Music Hall (30th June 30 & July 1), and a night at LA’s Hollywood Bowl (May 6), which is set to be one of his biggest stand-up gigs yet.
“Ricky Gervais is Britain’s biggest comedian. He sells out arenas around the world,” said Ian Coburn, Live Nation.
“When I was invited to play the iconic Hollywood Bowl, I said “What if it rains?” This pretty much sums up how British people think,” said Ricky.
His 2021 tour SuperNature was a huge success and subsequently became one of the most watched comedy specials of the year on Netflix, when it aired in May 2022. Netflix have already bought the rights to Armageddon, which will stream as Ricky’s next Netflix special in early 2024.
As Ricky has done with his previous tours, a portion of the proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to charity.
