Peter Kay is taking his \'Dance For Life\' shows on the road once again to raise money for Cancer Research UK.
The 46-year-old comedian has announced plans to stage two shows each in Manchester, Liverpool and London between April 10 and May 30, with the money raised through the three-hour dance-a-thons going to fund life-saving research.
The \'Phoenix Nights\' star - who has largely remained out of the spotlight in recent years - said: "I\'ve honestly never had so much fun as I had working on \'Dance For Life\'.

"The atmosphere was so happy and positive; it really is a great way to raise money for the worthiest of causes. All people have to do is turn up and dance.
"I\'d also like to encourage people to get themselves sponsored via JustGiving.com where a special \'Dance For Life\' team page has been set up."
The shows will see each of the venues - Alexandra Palace in London, Manchester Central and Liverpool\'s SPACE by M&S Bank Arena - transformed into giant dance floors, featuring state-of-the-art sound and lights.
Tickets are being priced at £28.50 each, and Caro Evans, the director of partnerships at Cancer Research UK, has urged the public to throw their support behind the cause.
Caro said: "We are so grateful to Peter for hosting his epic \'Dance For Life\' events to help us fund vital research to beat cancer.
"We need as many people as possible to join Peter and make a difference by dancing the night away."
Since 2016, Peter has played 14 UK arenas and sold over 75,000 tickets for his \'Dance For Life\' shows.
But the award-winning comedian has taken an extended break from the spotlight in recent years, after cancelling his 2018 stand-up tour due to "unforeseen family circumstances".
