Stand-up comedy show The Mo You Know by Mo Gilligan at the York Barbican.
Mo Gilligan brings his new stand-up show, The Mo You Know, to the York Barbican on Saturday 10 April 2027. It's part of a massive world tour that's taking him well beyond the UK: he's playing the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, the UAE, Norway, Sweden, Ireland, Finland, the Netherlands, France, Belgium, Estonia, Latvia, Germany, and Portugal, with UK dates running across 2026 and 2027. York is one of those stops.
Gilligan is a three-time BAFTA winner, and The Mo You Know is the tour he's taking that name on the road with. If you've followed his work, you know the sort of thing to expect — high-energy stand-up that doesn't sit still. This is a full evening of comedy, not a short set, and it's the same show he's performing across all those countries, so York gets the same material as the audiences in Singapore or Oslo.
It's a paid event, with tickets available through the usual channels. There's a booking fee on top of the ticket price, and the show is for ages 16 and over, so it's not one to bring the kids along to. The performance starts at 20:00, and since it's a Saturday night, it works as a proper night out rather than a quick trip to the theatre.
