His 2021 tour SuperNature was a huge success and subsequently became the most watched comedy special on Netflix when it aired earlier this year.
“Ricky Gervais is Britain’s biggest comedian. He sells out arenas around the world,” said Ian Coburn, Live Nation.
“When I was invited to play the iconic Hollywood Bowl, I said “What if it rains?” This pretty much sums up how British people think,” said Gervais.
