Michael Palin announces 13-date UK tour based on new book
You can see the Monty Python actor in Brighton, Cambridge, York and more.
Sir Michael Palin has announced a brand new UK tour centred around his upcoming book: There and Back.
It's been 10 years since the Monty Python actor published his last diary, with this new book – out on 26th September – focusing on the years 1999 to 2009, when Palin entered middle age and embarked on his new travel writing career.
The tour will take Palin to 13 cities around the UK, culminating in London's Cadogan Hall in October. Audiences can expect a string of stories, deep dives and observations across the writer's "most productive decade".
Following the announcement for the tour, Palin said: "In There and Back - The Diary Tour 2024, I’ll bring to life the fourth collection of my diaries and the first to be released for 10 years.
"Lots of fun as I go through the '00s, and some dark times too. I constantly surprise myself with the sheer amount I took on."
Tickets are on sale now, so here's everything you need to know about the tour.
