“We are thrilled to confirm that McIntyre will be performing two shows at the Grand Arena in January 2018. This is great news for his broad base of fans in the Western Cape. We expect the second show to sell fast as well,” said Elouise Matthys, PR and promotions manager at GrandWest.
McIntyre is venturing to South Africa as part of his Big World Tour. The shows at GrandWest forms part of two of only three performances he will do while in the country - McIntyre holds the record for the biggest selling comedy show in the country, including that of Norway.
In the United Kingdom, McIntyre has performed three arena tours selling over 1.5m tickets, including a record 28 times at London`s 16, 000 capacity O2 Arena where he was awarded the keys to the venue along with Prince, Take That and One Direction, as well as selling out arenas in New Zealand, Australia and Dubai.
McIntyre is also an actor and presenter, and currently presents his own television show Michael McIntyre`s Big Show on BBC One. The last series averaged over 6.5m viewers and recently received two British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) awards nominations.
Tickets to his Big World Tour shows at GrandWest are available at Computicket and range in price from R475 to R775 per person.
