POPULAR stand-up Michael McIntyre is set to return to the BIC next year with his new show, Happy & Glorious. Tickets are on sale now for his three Bournemouth dates on August 20-22.

Michael’s previous tour Showtime was the biggest selling comedy tour in the world in 2012, playing to over 640,000 people including a record-breaking ten-night residency at London’s O2 Arena matching the pop star Rihanna’s 2011 record.

The past few years have been exceptional for Michael with best-selling DVDs and countless awards.

Most recent highlights have included him making his debut as a chat show host on The Michael McIntyre’s Chat Show for BBC1.

But now Michael is set to return to the stage in what promises to be his biggest and funniest tour yet.

Special support act for the Bournemouth shows will be Paul Tonkinson.
