everyone.
We pride ourselves on supporting local, national and international comedians through all
stages of their careers and are pleased to welcome back many returning acts to the festival.

Johnston, Katie Mitchell, Jay Sandhu, Benny Shakes, Tommy Tomski, John Morris and many

But that’s not all, top names such as Mark Thomas, Scott Bennett, Harriet Kemsley, Juliette
