However, the 10,000 tickets for the show, also the Motorpoint Arena’s maximum capacity, were sold out almost instantly, with more than 50,000 waiting in the queue.
“I am an extremely restless person. Even as a kid, I had enrolled myself into pottery, drawing, painting and every other class I could find,” Arora says.
Thus, the organizers added a third show, which is scheduled to take place on Monday, October 6, 2025. And after an overwhelming response for the third show, Kay added another one for his Notts audience. Tickets for the fourth show are already on sale and start from £41.25.
