The festival
About Plymouth Comedy Festival
Something funny is happening in Plymouth.
From 5 to 7 February 2027, comedians and audiences will take over venues across the city for the very first Plymouth Comedy Festival.
Three days. Loads of shows. One hilarious city.
You might come for a comedian you’ve wanted to see for years. You might take a chance on someone you’ve never heard of. You might plan one show and somehow end up watching four.
That’s exactly the idea.
Plymouth Comedy Festival brings together big names, rising stars, local favourites and some of the most exciting acts coming through comedy right now. You’ll find them everywhere from intimate independent rooms to some of the city’s biggest stages.
And this is just the beginning.
We want to build a festival that becomes part of Plymouth. Something the city looks forward to every year and something comedians and comedy fans across the country know is worth making the trip for.
It starts in February 2027.
What’s waiting for you?
Your next favourite comedian
Take a chance. Some of the best festival experiences start with absolutely no idea what you’re walking into.
Proper Plymouth comedy
Local comedians, local venues and the people already making comedy happen here are right at the heart of the festival.
