Courtesy of Elite Marquees the whole festival will take place inside a luxury heated and seated marquee in Victoria Park where you can watch some of the biggest names in comedy up close and personal.
The star studded line-up includes the undisputed godfather of modern stand-Up Ben Elton, TV superstar Jason Manford, German Comedy Ambassador Henning Wehn, American Comedy Legend Rich Hall, Festival favourites Jason Byrne and Jimeoin, Political Comedian Mark Thomas, Star of ITV’S The Chase Paul Sinha ‘The Sinnerman’, comedy stars of TV Jo Caulfield, Hal Cruttenden, Ria Lina, Patrick Monahan, Comedy Circuit favourites The Raymond and Mr Timpkins Review, Rising local star Katie Tracey, host of smash hit podcast ‘Have a Word’, Dan Nightingale and one of the UKs most treasured entertainers Mick Miller.
Some shows have already sold out and others are selling fast so make sure to grab your tickets for the shows you want to see while they are still available!
The festival is also supporting the stars of tomorrow with the return of the Southport New Comedian of the Year Competition, sponsored for a third year by Dragon Soop.
The event will once again be ‘raising money while raising a smile’ with two special charity Bingo events planned for local charities Southport Flower Show and Community Link Foundation, this event is sponsored by Anthony James Estate Agents for a second year.
Organisers are extremely grateful to their fantastic local and national sponsors. Without their support they couldn’t bring you such great comedy year after year.
