Britain's What's On Event Guide
An Evening with David Sedaris Tour 2026
David Sedaris is set to return to the UK in 2026! He is one of America’s most celebrated satirists and humour writers and star of his hugely popular Radio 4 series ‘Meet David Sedaris’. He is the master of satire and one of today’s most observant writers. The tour takes in 9 dates and starts on 1st July at Brighton’s Theatre Royal culminating on 11th July at Bristol’s Beacon. The tour includes two dates at London’s Royal Festival Hall on 7th & 8th July.
He will read new and unpublished stories, take questions and, as is now an integral part of the evening, sign books and meet his audience. In many ways David Sedaris’ life has been an open book, through his essays, diaries and BBC Radio 4 series, he has made us consider the absurdities of human nature and modern life: family, travel, relationships, aging, the pandemic, political upheavals and of course roadside trash! By turns misanthropic and poignant, Sedaris deploys his precise prose and keen observational skills to make you laugh, think, and sometimes be deeply moved.
