Nish Kumar brings his ‘angry humour’ to Swansea as new UK tour announced
Fresh off the global success of his 2024/25 show Nish, Don’t Kill My Vibe, the award‑winning comedian has announced Angry Humour From a Really Nice Guy, a new hour promising existential angst, political chaos and the trademark high‑energy fury that’s made him one of Britain’s most influential comedy voices.
The tour kicks off in Belfast on 9 September 2026, with Kumar heading to Swansea Grand Theatre on 31 October.
‘The world is ending… so I’m going back on tour’
Kumar, co‑host of the hit podcast Pod Save the UK and former frontman of BBC’s The Mash Report, says the new show arrives at a time when the world feels like it’s “breaking apart”.
“I looked out of the window and the world was ending,” he said. “Stand‑up comedy was the only thing that made sense to me — then it was co‑opted by charlatans in service of autocrats. I’m going back on tour to try and reconnect with the thing I love more than anything else. I promise the show will be funnier than this.”
A comedian at the top of his game
Kumar’s last tour sold out venues across the UK, North America, Australasia and Europe, earning rave reviews for its mix of political bite and personal honesty. Critics have called him “roaringly funny” (The Times) and “the pre‑eminent comic political polemicist of our time” (The Guardian).
Now entering his 40s, Kumar says audiences can expect a show that’s bold, fast‑paced and unflinchingly smart — tackling big questions with the fury, intelligence and warmth that have defined his career.
From Taskmaster to global tours
Named one of the 50 Best Comedians of the 21st Century by both The Guardian and The Telegraph, Kumar has become a familiar face on TV and radio, appearing on Taskmaster, QI, Have I Got News For You, Live at the Apollo and more. His stand‑up specials have aired on Sky Comedy and Netflix.
Tickets for the new tour go on pre‑sale on Wednesday 28 January, with general sale from Friday 30 January at www.nishkumar.co.uk.

Anyone know what happened in #Cambridge last night that caused a huge police presence in Market Square? I didn't know that the city had that many police cars!
We were unable to leave #NishKumar's show for 15 minutes because the police wouldn't let people out of the building. I can't really complain, because he came back for an encore.

Last night I had the pleasure of seeing Nish Kumar on his current tour. Kept us in stitches for 90 minutes with a show that was both very dark and incredibly funny.
I always liked his material, I’ve been following him since his Newsjack days with the BBC, but man, this current set is just dynamite 🧨 👌
