English comedy sensation Russell Howard has announced that he will be making a triumphant return to Australian soil. Following the enormous success of his Netflix special Recalibrate, The Russell Howard Hour, Russell will be turning to Australia with his largest world tour to date, Respite.

Fresh off the back of a UK arena tour, Howard will be hitting up venues in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth in July of next year. It will be his first Australian appearance since 2017.

Back in 2017, Russell broke the world record for the biggest ever stand-up show in China. He also smashed Frank Sinatra and Barry Manilow’s record for most consecutive sold-out nights at London’s Royal Albert Hall, with 10 sold out shows.
