Multi award-winning Scottish stand up Mark Nelson returns with a new show, bringing his distinctive mix of sharp one-liners and social commentary to audiences across the UK and Ireland.

Doing his bit to answer the now perennial question - are men ok? Mark reflects on his (often competing) identities as a father, husband, comedian, and football-loving, dad rock-listening, current affairs-obsessed 21st century man. Expect cutting observations, finely crafted punchlines and pleasantly dark laughs.

Mark Nelson is known to audiences as the host of BBC's ‘The Good, The Bad & The Unexpected’ and ‘Edinburgh Unlocked’; and as co-host of the ‘Absolute Cuts’ podcast. His debut comedy special, 'Mark Nelson Live From Dumfries' recently aired on BBC Scotland.

Having racked up over 900 million views online, ‘Liquid Gold’ will see the five-time Scottish Comedy Awards Best Headliner back on stage for a 26-date run between October 2025 and March 2026, culminating in a finale show at Glasgow’s Pavilion Theatre on Saturday 14th March 2026.

Mark Nelson's awards include UK Comedian's Comedian Of The Year, Daily Telegraph Critics Choice of the Fringe, and Arts Award Voice Best Fringe Show. His work has been seen and heard on 'Have I Got News For You', 'The News Quiz', 'Breaking the News' and 'Have A Word'. Much in demand as a headliner and festival act, Mark has played to audiences as far afield as Australia, New York, Dubai and China.
