Ricky Gervais announces new ‘Legend’ World Tour

Ricky Gervais has announced the details of his new world tour ‘Legend', which will run from autumn 2026 to the end of 2027.

The rights to stream the tour have been snapped up by Netflix, making it Gervais' fifth Netflix special to date. Today Gervais announces the first set of UK shows on the new ‘Legend tour', from September – December 2026, with the tour then set to travel the globe throughout 2027, visiting the biggest arenas across the UK, Europe and North America (date announcements to follow).

Gervais’ four previous tours ‘Humanity', ‘Supernature', ‘Armageddon' and ‘Mortality' all broke box office records and topped the Netflix charts upon release. ‘Armageddon' and ‘Mortality' both won Ricky a Golden Globe for ‘Stand-Up Comedy on Television’, in 2024 and 2026 respectively.

“This is my most personal show so far and because both cancel culture, and most people I knew growing up, are dead, I can really say what the f*ck I want now,” Gervais said.

Netflix have purchased ‘Legend’ for an undisclosed amount but Gervais added “I’m not saying how much they’re paying me this time, but I can say it’s my favourite deal so far.”

Gervais will once more be donating a portion of the proceeds from the tour’s ticket sales to charity – £2.43 million was donated to worldwide animal charities at the end of his Mortality tour in 2025.

The dates so far are:

Tickets for the first set of UK dates on the ‘Ricky Gervais: Legend’ tour go on general sale on Friday 26^th June 2026, 10am. Tickets at livenation.co.uk.
