Henry Winkler said: "I could not be more excited to be touring England and Ireland this summer to share stories and insights from my Memoir.

"I know you'll laugh - maybe cry (have tissues on hand), and I really look forward to taking your questions and meeting you all!"

The Parks and Recreation star will also deliver performances in cities such as Dublin, Bath, Coventry and London.

The event incorporates a live audience Q&A, real-life stories, and additional highlights like his unforgettable appearance at the 1976 Logies.

Born on October 30, 1945, in New York City, the multi-talented American has far outstripped his iconic character, Arthur "Fonzie" Fonzarelli on the iconic American television series Happy Days.

His body of work as an actor, comedian, author, producer, and director has not only been recognized with three Emmy Awards, two Golden Globe Awards, and two Critics Choice Awards, but he has also drawn considerable admiration for his literary contributions.

This is most evident in his series of children’s books featuring "Hank Zipzer," a character inspired by his experiences with dyslexia.

Tickets for the tour, which celebrates the actor's 50-year career, are set for pre-sale from March 7, with general sale commencing the next day.
