After that run ended, he took to his official Instagram to pen the following note:"I ended my world tour after 18 months on the road at the famous O2 Arena, playing in front of 17,000. I am not here to give you a sob story, but when I left school, I felt like I had absolutely no purpose. I was the class clown with poor GCSEs, I didn’t have a clue what I was really good at."Mo Gilligan also added:"I found stand-up comedy at the age of 19, and the journey really started from there. Comedy has truly taken me to some of the most amazing places imaginable, but standing in front of 17,000 people at the O2 Arena on Saturday night was truly one of the greatest nights of my life that’s I’ll never forget. Words can’t express how difficult it was starting this world tour 18 months ago."Complete list of upcoming dates for Mo Gilligan's live shows2026 Australia and New Zealand tour datesSaturday, July 11, 2026, Perth, WA, at Astor Theatre Tuesday, July 14, 2026, Brisbane, QLD, at The Tivoli Thursday, July 16, 2026, Melbourne, VIC, at Athenaeum Theatre Friday, July 17, 2026, Sydney, NSW, at Enmore TheatreSunday, July 19, 2026, Auckland, NZ, at SkyCity TheatreMonday, July 20, 2026, Christchurch, NZ, at The Piano2025 London showsAhead of the world tour, Mo Gilligan will also perform a set of intimate shows in London.Monday, October 13, 2025, London, UK, at Up the Creek Comedy Club Tuesday, October 14, 2025, London, UK, at Up the Creek Comedy Club Monday, October 20, 2025, London, UK, at Up the Creek Comedy Club Tuesday, October 21, 2025, London, UK, at Up the Creek Comedy ClubPresale and ticketing informationMastercard cardholders will have access to presale tickets of Mo Gilligan's 2026 AU/NZ leg from Tuesday, September 23, 2025, at 1 pm until Thursday, September 25, 2025.
