Get ready to dance, laugh, and celebrate as the spectacular Priscilla Queen of the Desert embarks on a dazzling UK & Ireland tour in 2026! Based on the Oscar-winning 1994 film, this Broadway and West End smash-hit musical will burst onto stages across the country, kicking off at Manchester’s Palace Theatre on 16 February 2026 and touring through to July 2026, with international dates to follow.
Directed by Olivier Award-nominated Ian Talbot OBE, with choreography by Olivier Award-winner Matt Cole, Priscilla follows three fabulous friends on an unforgettable road trip across Australia in a battered but beloved bus.
