During a recent performance in Liverpool, comedian Peter Kay experienced a technical disruption that momentarily interrupted his act. The incident occurred at the M&S Bank Arena as he was kicking off a double-header show for his record-breaking “Better Late Than Never” tour.
Technical Issues at the Liverpool Show
On November 21, 2025, at approximately 8 PM, Kay took to the stage but faced an unexpected challenge just moments after beginning. A camera intended to film the audience malfunctioned, forcing him to halt the show.
Improvisation and Fan Engagement
Faced with the technical glitch, the 52-year-old comedian quickly shifted gears, engaging the audience with his trademark humor. “What’s going on here? We can’t stop, everyone’s already come in!” he remarked, taking the situation in stride. His natural ability to improvise led to a light-hearted interaction with thousands of fans in attendance.
He sat down and filled the time with banter, saying, “What shall I do? It’s warm in here isn’t it? It’s nice, that.” This quick-thinking helped maintain the audience’s spirits, and the show resumed shortly thereafter.
