Simon Brodkin is continuing his run of stand-up shows, with the announcement of a much-anticipated brand-new hour - Unleashed - touring internationally across 56 dates throughout 2026 – 2027.  

With 10 international shows scheduled between May-July 2026 in Australia, Sweden, Greece and Cyprus, the Unleashed tour will then hit the UK and Ireland from this autumn, with 46 shows announced from Friday 11th September 2026 – Saturday 20th March 2027.

This UK run will include a massive return to London's prestigious Hammersmith Eventim Apollo (13th Dec), a venue he sold out three times on his last tour.  

Packed with outrageous punchlines and electric crowdwork, Simon rips into broken Britain, the American Dream, religion, marriage, Genghis Khan, vape shops and wild swimmers - join Simon for a wildly funny night on his biggest ever tour!

Simon Brodkin: “I can't wait for my biggest ever tour! The timing feels perfect, I've not toured for two years so I've got a lot to say and my teenage kids no longer find me funny.”

Tickets for all international dates are on sale now. For UK and Ireland shows: Artist presale starts 10am, Tuesday 21st April. Venue presales start 10am, Wednesday 22nd April.

About Simon Brodkin

Brodkin has quickly established himself as one of the most exciting stand-up comedians in the world to see live, described by The Times as ‘a prodigious talent’. His last tour, ‘Screwed Up’ – a fearless, razor-sharp hour, rammed with hilarious observations and even funnier confessions - was a phenomenal success. Extended four times due to incredible demand, it ran for 170 dates around the world, culminating in three sold out nights at London’s Hammersmith Apollo as well as a headline-grabbing appearance at the Royal Variety Performance in front of a giggling Will & Kate.

Simon is currently breaking records on social media with his stand-up clips, averaging in excess of 50 million views across his socials every month. He has over 1m followers on Facebook and over 4m followers across all platforms, making him one of Britain’s most followed comedians.

‘Screwed Up’ became the most viewed UK special to premiere on YouTube, with The Times declaring ‘no show has made me laugh more’, and the Mail on Sunday describing it as a ‘full-on rat-a-tat gag fest’. Filmed at the stunning Theatre Royal, East London, Simon tears into social media, celebrities, the police, Prince Andrew, Putin and God. Nothing is off limits, including his own mental health, his family, and his multiple arrests. Brutally honest and relentlessly funny, ‘Screwed Up’ showcases Simon doing what he does best - tearing the roof off - while confirming his ascent into the A-List of entertainers.

Simon first rose to fame with his outrageous characters which became household names in the UK, including ‘comedy legend’ (The Sun) Lee Nelson and superstar footballer Jason Bent. Simon wrote and starred in three hugely popular BBC series of ‘Lee Nelson’s Well Good Show’ and ‘Well Funny People’. Further TV appearances include ‘Live at The Apollo’ (BBC), ‘Sunday Night at the Palladium’ (ITV), ‘The John Bishop Christmas Show’ (BBC) and ‘Children In Need’ (BBC).

Simon also frequently makes global headlines with his audacious stunts on the world’s most powerful people - showering FIFA boss Sepp Blatter with dollar bills, handing British Prime Minister Theresa May a P45, joining Kanye West on stage at Glastonbury Festival, and ambushing President Donald Trump on his golf course by surrounding him with ‘creatively decorated’ golf balls.
