Let’s be honest, 2020 was a bit of a let down. The closest most of us got to live comedy was watching videos on Facebook and no, listening to a family members' painful lockdown attempt to learn a new instrument doesn’t count as live music.
But with a vaccine on the horizon, we’re keeping our fingers firmly crossed that live music, comedy, theatre and festivals will be back on the agenda next year.
So, if you’ve left it too late to order a physical gift in the post, printable tickets for these amazing tours and concerts will make thoughtful and optimistic gifts. Besides, we really all do need something to look forward to in 2021.
