Billy Connolly tickets and 2024 tour dates

Biography

William \"Billy\" Connolly, CBE, (born 24 November 1942) is a comedian, musician, presenter, and actor. He is sometimes known, especially in his native Scotland, by the nickname \"The Big Yin\" (The Big One), a reference to his height. Any male visitor to Glasgow above average height may be addressed as \"Big Yin\" by the locals; Billy, however, is The Big Yin. An early irreverent sketch, The Crucifixion, is an example of his often controversial humour, and his style, in story and song, is known for being somewhat vulgar, and for being very critical towards respected institutions.
