Jack Whitehall brings his new arena stand-up tour 'Bad Influence' to Vaillant Live, with three shows on 28 February.
Jack Whitehall brings his new tour, Bad Influence, to Vaillant Live on Sunday 28 February 2027. It's a national arena tour, and the Derby date is a big one: there are three shows on the day, with performances at 1:00pm, 2:00pm and 7:00pm. The matinees mean you can catch it in the afternoon if an evening doesn't work, and the extra date was added because of demand.
Bad Influence is brand-new material, and it arrives after a busy few years for Whitehall. He recently starred in Prime Video's Malice and hosted The BRIT Awards, and the tour follows a long stretch of screen work. You'll likely recognise him from Fresh Meat, the Channel 4 series where he played JP, or from A League Of Their Own on Sky One. He also co-hosted Backchat on BBC2 with his father, Michael, and wrote and starred in the BBC3 sitcom Bad Education.
The show itself is built on the things he's known for: razor-sharp observations, awkward confessions, and the mischievous charm of his stage persona. It's unfiltered stand-up, and the reviews have been strong. The Times called it 'the most spectacular arena stand-up show ever', The Telegraph said his 'refusal to grow up is just what we need right now', and the Evening Standard described it as 'gloriously unfiltered'.
