Our spring touring season has wrapped at Brass Tacks Comedy, and it’s been the busiest run of UK and Ireland comedy tours we’ve delivered so far.
We’re a UK and Ireland comedy tour promoter, and this spring we worked across five tours: Sam Lake, Grace Mulvey, Peter Flanagan, Tamsyn Kelly, and the final leg of Killian Sundermann’s run. Five very different comedians, and five tours we’re properly proud of.
LOOKING FOR LIVE COMEDY NEAR YOU?
If you caught one of these shows this spring, you’ve already seen what we mean. If you haven’t, here’s who you’ve been missing.
OUR SPRING TOURING SEASON
Sam Lake brought You’re Joking!? Not Another One! across the country, fresh off being named one of British Comedy Guide’s best reviewed shows of the year. He’s also the host of the podcast I’ve Had A Rosé, Let’s Talk About Feelings and a regular on BBC Radio Scotland.
Grace Mulvey toured Did You Hear We’re All Going To Die?, the follow-up to her Rolling Stone-recognised debut Tall Baby. Beyond The Joke called it “guaranteed floor-to-ceiling laughs.” Dark, warm, and far funnier than a show about death has any right to be.
Peter Flanagan’s Fresh Prince of Kildare was the biggest tour of the spring for us. The Irish comic writes columns for the Irish Times and the Irish Independent when he’s not on stage, and The Times called him “a rising star.”
Tamsyn Kelly took Hot Titty Bungalow on the road, including a hometown show in Penzance that sold out completely plus an extra show. As seen on ITV2, Comedy Central, BBC One and BBC Three, and a winner of the Edinburgh Comedy Award Panel Prize Best in Class.
And Killian Sundermann brought the final dates of This Boy Is Cracking Up to UK audiences, the Irish comic Marian Keyes once said left her “choking with laughter.” Named one of Ireland’s brightest young talents by the Irish Times, he’s building a serious following on both sides of the Irish Sea.
WHAT’S COMING UP NEXT
Our touring roster doesn’t stop. Here’s what’s coming up.
Aoife Dunne brings Good Grief to UK stages this September, after selling out her entire 2025 tour, including the Edinburgh Fringe and the Galway International Arts Festival. It’s a show about loss that somehow also makes you laugh until you cry, and it’s been extended by popular demand.
Kim Blythe returns this autumn with Puzzle, her most ambitious tour yet, reaching cities she’s never toured before including Bristol, Brighton, Cambridge, Cork and the Scottish Borders. Broadway World called her “an incredibly skilled comedian”.
And Sofie Hagen takes I Think Some Of This Is My Fault across the UK through spring and autumn 2027. The Independent called her “eye-catchingly odd and disarmingly honest,” and she’s been making people laugh, and think, since winning Best Newcomer at the Edinburgh Fringe back in 2015.

We choose acts because we love their work. Then we build a full marketing campaign around every tour, so the right audiences actually hear about it.
