Peter Kay, whose 2010 tour played to 1.2 million people, closed his 2025 run of London dates at The O2 arena on his tour Better Late Than Never.
Peter Kay, whose 2010 tour played to 1.2 million people, played The O2 arena in North Greenwich on Saturday 26 July 2025. It was his last London night of the year on his tour Better Late Than Never.
Kay comes from Farnworth in Lancashire, and his mother is from Coalisland in County Tyrone. He and his wife, Susan, run Goodnight Vienna Productions, which co-produces his comedy. The University of Salford, where he studied media performance, made him an honorary Doctor of Arts in 2016.
He announced his first tour in 12 years during an advert on I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! in November 2022. A tour planned for 2018 had been cancelled for family reasons.
At The O2 the tour became a monthly residency, the first the arena had given any artist. He had played 45 shows there by early 2025, more than any other act.
The July night was the last of three extra dates The O2 added that year.
