The Henry Cole Tour

SHOW DESCRIPTION 

The Henry Cole Tour is hosted by his good friend & renowned prankster Steve ‘Stavros’ Parrish.

After 17 dates in 2025, the show is back for 2026 — bigger, louder and with brand new stories. You’ll get the tale of his life so far, the mischief, the machines… plus some new bits too for 2026.

Henry was educated at Eton at the same time as Boris Johnston & has forged a career spanning some 32 years. Steve will guide Henry through his varied life covering stories about Henry’s Heroin addiction. He is now three decades clean and shares his experience in battling addiction.

He is best known for presenting The World’s Greatest Motorcycle Rides, The Motorbike Show, Shed and Buried , Find It, Fix It, Flog It, Find It, Fix It, Drive It, Junk & Disorderly, and The Great British Treasure Hunt. Henry also owns HCA Entertainments, and has directed over 70 TV commercials (and a film with Liz Hurley).

Henry says: "I’m genuinely humbled that anyone would choose to sit in a theatre and listen to me ramble on about motorbikes, sheds, and life in general for a couple of hours. If we’re not coming to a theatre near you, I promise it’s nothing personal. The simple truth is that pinning down dates when both Stavros and I are free is a feat in itself, we’re busier than ever filming, and Steve is off causing havoc around the globe. Then we have to find a venue that’s the right size and available at the same time. Honestly, our tour manager would have better luck herding ferrets".
