Kevin Bridges

Scotland’s premier export, Glaswegian Kevin Bridges, hailed as ‘brilliant’ by his comedy idol Billy Connolly, has experienced an extraordinary rise to fame.

His 2012 tour, Kevin Bridges – The Story Continues..., shattered box office records, selling an astounding 45,000 tickets on the first day. Kevin continued to sell out an impressive nine-show run at the Glasgow SECC Arena. His epic 136-date tour culminated in a sold-out run throughout Australia.

Scottish comedian Kevin Bridges has been a television mainstay for years. After starring in shows like Live at the Apollo and Have I Got News For You, Kevin hosted his own series of shows. Commissioned for BBC One, he hosted a special of his critically acclaimed documentaries, Kevin Bridges – What’s The Story Referendum Special, and stand-up shows on the Commonwealth Games and the Scottish Referendum, filmed live at the Theatre Royal in Glasgow.

Kevin’s autobiography, ‘We Need To Talk About… Kevin Bridges’, was released in October 2014 through Penguin Books, followed by a 22-book signing tour across the UK. It became a Sunday Times Best Seller and has since been released in paperback.

Bridges broke box office records when his 2015 tour A Whole Different Story went on sale at the end of 2014, winning awards from Ticketmaster and Ents24 for the Fastest Selling Ticket of the year. The tour saw him sell over 500,000 tickets across 145 dates, including an incredible 16 nights at The Hydro in Glasgow. The Hydro was the perfect venue to record his DVD, which went on to sell over 300,000 copies, becoming his best-selling DVD.

His latest tour saw him play an impressive 19 nights at Glasgow’s iconic venue – The Hydro.
