We’re proud to have been an award winning comedy venue for nearly 20 years and very proud to work with Colin AKA Captain Colino’s Comedy Playhouse aka TripleCeePee – who is also a multiple Leicester Comedy Festival award winner!
Leicester Comedy Festival is one of the biggest and longest running comedy festivals in the UK. For the past 30 years we have celebrated British comedy and have been dedicated to supporting and nurturing emerging talent. Being an open access festival means that anyone can pay a fee to put on an event – and we encourage people from all stages of their career to come and take part. We get a buzz from working with new comedians and being part of and watching their journey as they grow professionally and reach new heights.
We want to reach as many people across Leicester, Leicestershire and beyond with the joy of live comedy. From the weird and wonderful, to shows in unusual spaces and comedy out in the county, we are committed to creating one of a kind experiences for YOU, our lovely audiences.
Festival dates for your diary next year are 7 – 25 February 2024
