“They want something that will give them a really great night out, with lots of laughter. 

“We were at Southport Food and Drink Festival at the weekend, handing out flyers and letting people know all about this year’s Southport Comedy Festival. It was very busy! It’s good to see people back out and enjoying events in Southport again. 

“With less than a month to go, this is now D-Day for us! Tickets are already selling very well. 

“This is the strongest Comedy Festival line-up we have had, we are really looking forward to it.”

“It is great to be working with Rollin’ Stove owner Sandy McKenzie, who used to own The Latin Lounge in Southport. 

“With less than a month to go until the event, everything is falling into place now, it is all moving forward. 

“We would love people to buy tickets, come down, have a drink and something to eat, sit back and enjoy some of the top comedians on the circuit.
