Tim Minchin, the incomparable singer-songwriter, pianist, comedian, actor, musical-theatre composer-lyricist and soft-hearted provocateur, is thrilled to announce further dates to his ironically titled UK tour, "Songs The World Will Never Hear” due to phenomenal demand. The tour marks the 20th anniversary of his explosive arrival onto the British comedy scene in 2005. Tickets for all new shows go on sale on Thursday 20th February at 11am at TimMinchin.com.
The tour kicks off on 4 June 2025 at London’s Soho Theatre Walthamstow and will now span 19 cities across the UK, with new dates added in Birmingham, Manchester, Bournemouth, Sheffield, Bath and Nottingham, as well as three spectacular headline shows at the iconic Eventim Apollo in Hammersmith from 4-6 July 2025.
Audiences can expect an evening packed with unforgettable songs and stories, as Minchin looks back on how a Perth cabaret pianist ended up building one of the most eclectic and extraordinary careers in entertainment. Delivered with signature blend of razor-sharp wit, musical virtuosity, and disarming honesty, the set list will draw from three decades of unique songwriting.
From comedy classics to tear-jerking Christmas songs... from boobs to existentialism... from fast fingering to free will... there’s nothing quite like an evening in the company of Tim Minchin.
Minchin’s previous tours garnered awards, critical acclaim and sold-out audiences worldwide. After a seven-year hiatus from touring, his triumphant 2019 return to the stage with “Back” captivated over 130,000 fans across the UK and Australia, with multiple sold-out performances at prestigious venues like the London Palladium.
In true Minchin fashion, the 2025 tour will feature a limited number of premium-priced VIP seats at each show, with proceeds contributing £5,000 per night to local charities. VIP ticket holders will also receive exclusive signed merchandise, ensuring a night to remember both on and off the stage.
Tim Minchin said: Incredibly, many of my UK fans have been by my side for two decades. They have never flinched as I’ve turned corners and reinvented myself, always engaging open-heartedly with whatever I have to offer. I’m the luckiest artist on the planet, and I can’t wait to be back to deliver a big joyous show, spanning the whole bloody thing.”
