Set to commence on 19 October, the tour will see James travelling across the UK, with shows in Blackpool, Oxford, Cornwall, Manchester, York, London and more. Attracting over 30,000 people last year, James Martin Live follows the TV chef as he rustles up some incredible dishes live on stage. 

During the 2022 show, he wowed crowds by building the "biggest and best bacon and cheese butty" as well as huge Yorkshire puddings. In a hilarious moment, he also created retro Funny Feet ice cream, using Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield's feet for the mould.
