Ireland’s one and only High Queen of Ireland, Panti Bliss is headed to Belfast this week in her ONLY Belfast tour date of 2015.

National treasure, accidental activist, figurehead of Ireland’s recently successful ‘Yes Equality’ campaign and performance legend PANTI BLISS hits Mandela Hall with her critically acclaimed stand-up show “HIGH HEELS IN LOW PLACES” on Friday 4th December in what will be her ONLY Belfast tour date of 2015 (having previously sold out her last Belfast show in 2014).

THISISPOPBABY and TABOO present Panti Bliss as she brings her stand-up show to Belfast’s Mandela Hall for a night of laughter, celeb gossip and more than one tin of hairspray.

Charting brushes with infamy, near misses with fame, and adventures in the seedy underbelly, the ‘High Queen of Ireland’ invites you in to her ultra-padded, hyper-real, stiletto-shaped world, as she swaps stories from the gutter and trades secrets of the stars.

Panti landed herself in the middle of a media storm christened ‘Pantigate’ that rocked Ireland in 2014. Soon after, she became a YouTube sensation when a speech she made about homophobia, described as ‘the most eloquent Irish speech’ in 200 years by Irish Times columnist Fintan O’Toole. The speech went viral with over 750,000 views on youtube, was broadcast around the world, debated in parliament and even remixed by the Pet Shop Boys – sparking a powerful conversation about equality.

When: 8pm, Friday 4th December
Where: Mandela Hall, Belfast
How Much: £15

Hi, I'm Laura. I'm 30 years old and have a degree in Journalism with Photo-Imaging at the University of Ulster. I have an undying love for Belfast and all that it has to offer, an undying love for sleeping, Tegan and Sara, trashy tv shows, foreign snack-foods and being irresponsible with money. I also quite like origami, reading, jazz, hip-hop, dubstep, anything acoustic and Food Network TV. I've written for The Big List, Culture NI, Chatterbox and The Echo, as well as writing for BBC Across the Line.
