Brighton Comedy
Festival!
Here comes Summer and two pages full of great
diverse events at which you could spend your time over
the next three months. If, like me, you’ve just spent a
few days rescuing the garden from winter’s desertion
it is tempting to stay there. Make a decision to get out
and about as much as possible making the most of
whatever good weather that may come our way.
Fri 2nd to Sun 11th October
The Dome, Komedia and The Old
Market Brighton
The festival sets out to present the
best live comedy of the year. With
over 70 performances including Jack
Dee, Rich Hall, Simon Amstell, Milton
Jones, Adam Hills, Josh Widdicombe,
Romesh Ranganathan and so so many
more across 16 days, the city really
will be awash with something to tickle
everyone’s funny bone.

Sun 1st November
Brighton Centre
It’s been six years since they won
Britain’s Got Talent to an audience
of 20 million viewers. Spurred on by
the group’s motto ‘Dream, believe,
achieve’, they hope to inspire young
people with passion. Catch them this
winter at the Brighton Centre for an
early festive night out with the family,
but be sure to get on it quick: tickets
sell out fast.
