Due to popular demand, new dates have been added to the 2024 UK residencies for Faulty Towers The Dining Experience, the critically acclaimed international immersive phenomenon, about to head into its 27th consecutive year touring internationally.

Following a sell-out stint in Birmingham this autumn, the show will return to the Banqueting Suite at the Council House, Victoria Square, Birmingham from 25–28 April, and then again 24 October–3 November 2024.

Following a sell-out run in Edinburgh this autumn, Scottish audiences will be able to enjoy Basil’s antics next spring, with a Glasgow residency now confirmed for 17-21 April at the Arta.

Welsh audiences can catch the show in Cardiff from 28 March–7 April at the Novotel Cardiff Centre.

As previously announced, the show will return to Hotel Brooklyn Manchester for a three-week stint in spring 2024, with performances from 14 February–3 March. The show will also do a pre-Christmas weekend at Hotel Brooklyn Leicester (12 – 13 December), and then return in 2024 for a two-week spring stint from 7–17 March.

Other visits to major UK cities include Mill Hotel & Spa Chester from 8–10 December 2023, York Pavilion on 16 March 2024, Palm Court Hotel Aberdeen from 21-22 March, Town Centre Hotel Northampton from 4–7 April, and Royal Station Hotel Newcastle from 11–28 April.

Faulty Towers The Dining Experience is a highly interactive experience, where audiences enjoy a 3-course meal and 5-star comedy. It has just extended its residency in London for another year, with tickets there now on sale until December 2023.

When the audience become diners in the ‘Faulty Towers’ restaurant, pretty much anything can happen – because 70% of the show is improvised. The fun starts as guests wait to be seated. It then hurtles along in a 2-hour tour de force of gags and shambolic service as Basil, Sybil and Manuel serve a ‘70s-style 3-course meal together with a good dollop of mayhem.

Expect the unexpected!

Producer Jared Harford said, “We’re so thrilled at the reception we have received opening residencies in new cities, and we cannot wait to open more later this year. We look forward to welcoming new audiences through the door, and returning to cities like Birmingham and Manchester, who’ve really taken us to their hearts this year!.”
