Peter Kay Show Evacuated Over Bomb Hoax
24 Jul
Summary
- Peter Kay's Birmingham show was evacuated mid-performance.
- A bomb hoax forced the comedian off stage 45 minutes into his set.
- The rescheduled show is now set to take place on Saturday.

Fans experienced a long wait to see Peter Kay perform in Birmingham, with his show at the Utilita Arena on May 1st significantly disrupted. Approximately 45 minutes into the highly anticipated performance, the arena was suddenly evacuated due to a bomb hoax. This unfortunate event led to Peter Kay being rushed off the stage, leaving the audience in disbelief.
The disruption caused considerable disappointment to attendees. Following the incident, 19-year-old Omar Majed from Saltley, Birmingham, was charged in connection with the hoax. A provisional trial date was set for November 3rd.
After a period of waiting, fans will finally have the opportunity to witness Peter Kay's rescheduled show. Aptly named as part of his 'Better Late Than Never' tour, the performance is now scheduled to take place this Saturday at the Utilita Arena.
