Kevin Bridges brought four sold-out shows to P&J Live in Aberdeen.

Scottish comedian Kevin Bridges has just become the highest-selling act to perform at Aberdeen’s P&J Live since the venue opened in September 2019, with 39,279 people attending his four sold-out shows.

The funnyman was in the Granite City from Thursday September 29 to Sunday October 2 as part of his The Overdue Catch-Up tour, which also saw him complete a record-breaking 16 shows in Glasgow.

Louise Stewart, interim managing director at P&J Live, said: “Kevin is a clear favourite among the people in the north-east, with fans filling a total of 12 shows at our previous venue, Aberdeen Exhibition & Conference Centre (AECC), in 2012 and 2015.

“The demand for his content continues to be really high, with a phenomenal number of fans having attended P&J Live over the past few days.”
