He’s come a long way from being Greg Davies’ warm-up act; now the funniest foodie on television, with podcasts, panel shows and reality TV to his name, Ed Gamble is one the UK’s best comedy stars.

Now, the “ranting, raving and spluttering” comedian is heading back on tour next Spring for a 53-show epic across the UK and Ireland.

The 37-year-old will be bringing his new show, Hot Diggity Dog, to audiences in Glasgow, Dublin, Manchester and more, before finishing off with five nights at London’s Hackney Empire.

Lasting from March to June, this tour is set to be Gamble’s biggest yet, and will see fans across the country howling at his classic brand of self-deprecation and brutal honesty.

Following the announcement, tour promoters Avalon have teased: “Ed Gamble has minced a load of meat (thoughts), piped it into a casing (show) and it’s coming to a bun (venue) near you.”

Plus, Gamble himself has said: "I'm absolutely delighted to once again slog around the UK to perform another one of my best shows ever. Standard sort of day will be: arrive, get peri chicken delivered backstage, do the show. I can't wait."

In the build-up to such a massive tour, you might want to remind yourself of some of Gamble’s biggest achievements. After making his solo debut at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2014 with the Gambletron 500, the comedian quickly became a regular panellist on shows like Mock the Week and also starred in the faux-reality series, Almost Royal.

In 2019, Gamble competed on and won the ninth series of Taskmaster and in 2022, he appeared on the cooking show Great British Menu, which later landed him a permanent gig as a judge.

Then there’s Off Menu: the hit podcast with Gamble and James Acaster that’s been downloaded over 120 million times. Since starting off in 2018 this show, where the two comedians ask their celebrity guest to choose their perfect meal, has become one of the biggest podcasts around.

So, if you’ve seen him before you’ll know you’re guaranteed a laugh. If you haven’t, well, we reckon it’s worth a gamble – here’s everything you need to know about how to get tickets.
