The Southport Comedy Festival Under Canvas

29 Sep 2023 - 15 Oct 2023

Victoria Park, Southport

The Southport Comedy Festival in association with Halliwell Jones BMW is back for its 12th year and promises to be bigger and better!

From the 29th September to 15th October stars from the world of comedy will descend on the lovely seaside town of Southport for 17 days of laughter.

Festival favourites Jason Byrne, Jimeoin, Paul Sinha, Gary Delaney, Nina Gilligan and Rich Hall will be joined by Seann Walsh, Tom Davis, Jen Brister, Clinton Baptiste, Emmanuel Sonubi, Mark Nelson, Simon Brodkin and Mark Steel who play the festival for the first time.

The festival will also be supporting new talent with the Southport New Comedian of the Year competition sponsored by Dragon Soop. There will also be Comedy Bingo and a back to the 80’s Disco Bingo night raising funds for local charities.

It all takes place under canvas in a heated and seated luxury marquee courtesy of Elite Marquees in the beautiful grounds of the Victoria Park, home of the world-renowned Southport Flower Show.
