Britain's Got Talent 2023 winner Viggo Venn announces shows in Leeds and Sheffield as part of UK-wide tour

Britain's Got Talent winner Viggo Venn is coming to Yorkshire for two shows as part of a UK-wide tour. The comedian won the ITV talent show after securing the most votes in the star-studded final earlier this month.

Viggo blew away the competition in an explosion of hi-vis jackets, balloons, and joyous idiocy, with Viggo became the most talked-about new entertainer in the country. His win means he will get to perform in front of royalty at the Royal Variety Show.

However, before that, the Norwegian will go on tour across the UK as part of his debut UK tour entitled 'British Comedian'. Viggo said: “I have been receiving thousands of videos on Instagram from young and old dancing around in hi vis vests and nothing makes me happier!

"So excited to bring a show full of fun, quirkiness and surprises for everyone! Can’t wait to meet people and go on a highly visible UK tour! (I will bring Viggo-vests with me, if you forget yours!)."

Viggo will start his tour in Milton Keynes later this year and isn't scheduled to come to Leeds until February 13, 2024. He will perform at City Varieties but that is not his only destination in Yorkshire.
