Sandro Ford
Stand-up comedian Sandro Ford is heading out on his first ever UK and Ireland tour, and it’s a big one. Titled Lager Than Life, this debut run brings Sandro’s unmistakable voice, sharp observations, and pub-bred storytelling to stages across the country.
Co-Host of the smash hit ‘Problematic Pub Podcast’ and as seen on ‘Have A Word’, ‘Dead Men Talking’, and ‘Hot Water Green Room’, Sandro has quickly made a name for himself as a comic who tells it how it is. His comedy is rooted in real life — growing up, getting older, bad decisions, worse hangovers, and the sort of characters you only ever meet in or around a pub. Honest, self-aware, and unapologetically funny, his material feels lived-in and instantly relatable.
Lager Than Life is a celebration of nights that spiral, mates who never change, and the quiet chaos of everyday British life. Sandro’s relaxed delivery and natural crowd connection allow his punchlines to land effortlessly, turning familiar situations into moments of pure comedy. One minute he’s dissecting modern masculinity, the next he’s deep into a story that probably should’ve stayed off record — but you’re glad it didn’t.
This tour marks the next step for a comic firmly on the rise, bringing his most personal and hard-hitting material yet to live audiences. Whether you’ve followed his podcast appearances or are discovering him for the first time, expect big laughs, brutal honesty, and stories that hit close to home.
So get a drink in, find your seat, and brace yourself. With Sandro Ford, it’s always Down the Hatch. Lovelyyy
