The Monsters Tour was the final comedy tour of British comedian Lee Evans.[1][2][3][4]
The tour visited Bournemouth, Brighton, Nottingham, Sheffield, Birmingham, London, Manchester, Glasgow, Leeds, Aberdeen, Liverpool, Newcastle, Dublin, Belfast and Cardiff with tickets going on sale in late May 2013.[5][6] The tour follows a fairly similar route to Evans' 2011 Roadrunner Tour.[7]
A live DVD was recorded at the NIA, Birmingham on Saturday 20 September with Lee receiving a standing ovation following the finale.
On 20 November, Lee announced the tour to be his last ever, subsequently announcing his retirement from comedy.[8]
