The AO Arena in Manchester will host Paul Smith on 21 October 2026 as part of his 2026/2027 world tour. This folk-pop singer-songwriter, known for his work within the UK music scene, brings an acoustic set to mid-size venues and a dedicated fanbase. Tickets for the performance start from £35.00.
Paul Smith is hitting the road again with his brand-new tour HAPPY and this is the biggest, boldest show of his career.
Following sold-out runs and viral success across the globe, HAPPY takes Paul’s trademark crowd work, razor-sharp observations, and laugh-out-loud true stories to an entirely new level. This is stand-up at full throttle: fast, fearless, and relentlessly funny.
Packed with outrageous audience interaction and stories pulled straight from real life, HAPPY is a show about finding joy in the chaos, laughter in the everyday, and comedy in absolutely everything. Expect jaw-aching laughs from the first minute to the last.
This is Paul Smith’s biggest tour ever, spanning the UK, Ireland, Europe, North America, Australia and New Zealand and tickets will go fast.
If you like your comedy raw, real, and uncontrollably funny…
HAPPY is the show you don’t want to miss!
