Russell Howard, “one of the world’s top comedians” (Sunday Times) is on his way to New Zealand in 2024. As we reel from one global crisis to the next, join Russell, ‘the uplifting Comedy King’, as he puts the world to rights in his own uniquely hilarious way.
Selling over 300,000 tickets, Russell Howard’s previous third and biggest sell-out world tour to date, "Respite," saw him play the UK, USA, Europe, Australia & New Zealand taking him across 24 countries in 3 continents in total. The tour concluded with Russell taping his second Netflix special, "Lubricant" which is streaming internationally now.
Russell recently filmed his sixth series of "The Russell Howard Hour" where he shares his takes on stories dominating the cultural zeitgeist. The show features in-depth interviews, with an array of fascinating previous guests including Greta Thunberg, Ed Sheeran, Matthew McConaughey, Naomi Klein, Jim Carrey, Brian Cox, and Elizabeth Banks and is available on Russell’s YouTube channel, with over 1.4 million subscribers. Russell has had over 1 billion views on his content on his official social media channels.
