About

Despite having not set foot in a comedy club before his first open mic spot in 2004, Kevin Bridges' natural gift for comedy ensured he quickly became a regular at major comedy clubs up and down the country including The Comedy Store, The Stand, The Glee Club and Jongleurs.

As well as having a strong hometown following, Kevin has taken his style of observational, cutting edge comedy all around the globe. Performing throughout Ireland Holland, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, Canada along with tours of the Far East and Middle East.

2005 saw Kevin reach the finals of every New Act competition, most notably Channel 4's "So you think you're funny?"

In 2006 Kevin Bridges performed his first full length solo show at the Glasgow International Comedy Festival, to a sold out audience and critical acclaim. Moving into bigger venues every year, Kevin continued to sell out his hometown festival in 2007, 2008 and 2009.

Kevin appeared on The World Stands Up and The Comedy Store (Comedy Central) which led to his first big TV break as a guest on Michael Mcintyre's Comedy Roadshow, which aired to over 5 million viewers and led to Kevin being the fastest act to sell out all 28 nights of his Edinburgh Festival run and adding a staggering 15 extra shows, which also sold out!

A favourite with the punters but also the critics, Kevin received 5 star reviews and a nomination for the Edinburgh Comedy Awards Best Newcomer.

Kevin broke box office records when his 2015 tour A Whole Different Story went on sale at the end of 2014, winning awards from Ticketmaster and Ents24 for the Fastest Selling Ticket of the year.

The tour saw him play over 145 dates, including an incredible 16 nights at The Hydro in Glasgow, with over 500,000 ticket sales across the whole tour. The Hydro was then the perfect place to record a DVD, which went onto sell over 300,000 copies making it his biggest selling stand up comedy DVD.

In 2018, Kevin’s ‘Brand New’ tour accumulated just under 1,000,000 tickets sold across the world including a record 35 sold-out-shows at Glasgow’s iconic Hydro, establishing him as the artist that has sold more shows than anyone else at that venue.

In 2022, Kevin toured with The Overdue Catch-up across the UK.

Testimonials

Kevin Bridges performed at the Thrifty 2023 Conference and was hilarious from start to finish. Having done his research, he tailored his set to our business and he had the room in stitches! He worked the room and interacted with the audience magnificently, leaving us all laughing (some even crying) uncontrollably!

Martin Wilson, Managing Director – Thrifty Car & Van Rental
