Nish Kumar announces 2026 tour

Show to be titled Angry Humour From A Really Nice Guy

Nish Kumar is heading back on the road with a new stand-up show later this year,.

The 40-year-old will launch Angry Humour From A Really Nice Guy in Belfast on September 9, with 29 dates announced so far.

He said: ‘I looked out of the window and the world was ending. Stand-up comedy was the only thing that made sense to me – then it was co-opted by charlatans in service of autocrats. 

‘I'm going back on tour to try and reconnect with the thing I love more than anything else. I promise the show will be funnier than this.’

The blur for the show reads: ‘The world is in chaos. Inequality is widening, autocracy is rising and political parties are collapsing. In these divided times, what this country desperately needs is Angry Humour From a Really Nice Guy (in many ways it's actually the last thing this country needs, but it's what it's getting so tough luck)..’

It follows his previous tour, Nish, Don't Kill My Vibe, which began in September 2024

Kumar is co-host of the Pod Save The UK podcast, is former host of BBC show The Mash Report, and describes himself as ‘one of Taskmaster’s greatest losers’.

Tickets go on general sale on Friday,
