Speaking about the tour Mo said: "I’m really proud of the Black British comedy circuit. It’s where it all started for me and it's full of so much incredible talent. I’m absolutely honoured to be heading out on tour with these phenomenal comics to showcase even more history-making lineups.”
With his brand new BBC show ‘That’s My Jam’ set to premiere on Saturday, December 17, the multi-award-winning TV host, Masked Singer judge and social media megastar, is one of the UK's most celebrated comics. Recent career highlights include hosting the iconic BRIT Awards, his debut book release, recording four series of The Big Narstie Show, producing his first documentary, launching the acclaimed Big Breakfast reboot and landing his own hit Channel 4 series The Lateish Show with Mo Gilligan, which bagged him a BAFTA for the Entertainment Performance Award.
The comic, who is currently one of the UK's most popular, used to come on holiday to Barry and Cardiff as his mother was born in the seaside town and he would come to visit in the summer holidays.
Recently Mo's friend and Gogglebox co-star Babatunde Aleshe entered the I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! jungle where he credited Mo for helping him re-start his comedy career. You can keep up to date with the latest What's On news by signing up to the newsletter here.
