Get ready for a good laugh! We're so stoked Sarah is coming to town.

We are very excited to announce that international comedy star Sarah Millican will be performing at the Trafalgar Centre on January 15 2025 with her Late Bloomer tour.

When Sarah Millican was a child, she wouldn’t say boo to a goose. Quiet at school and not many friends.

Now? NOW she is loud, with good friends and goose booing all over the shop.

In Late Bloomer, Sarah’s brand-new stand-up show, she explores how one became the other. Plus, lots of stuff about dinners and lady gardens. Come along, laugh at her, with her, beside her.

Keep an eye on our socials for ticketing information.
