Join us for an evening of laughter with writer, broadcaster, and comedian Tam Cowan, who has enjoyed a successful career in newspapers, radio, and television since 1990, most notably as co-presenter of BBC Radio Scotland's award-winning football show Off The Ball, which celebrated its 30th birthday in 2024.

As well as a weekly two-page column in the Sunday Post and a monthly football comedy show (Aff The Baw) live at Blackfriars in Glasgow, Tam is in high demand for stand-up and speaking gigs and is a regular at the Edinburgh Fringe, playing to sold-out crowds for the past three years.

He also dedicates a lot of his time to charity work, chiefly St. Andrew's Hospice in Airdrie. A lifelong Motherwell FC supporter, Tam is married to journalist Liz, with a 14-year-old daughter Sophie (and a Maltese dog called Casper).

Ticket prices: Standard: £20 / VIP Meet & Greet: £35

The VIP Meet & Greet ticket includes the chance to meet Tam backstage, have your photo taken, and get merchandise signed (if you bring any). Meet & greets will take place during the first interval.
