MK Comedy Festival - Weekend Ticket

Milton Keynes Comedy Festival takes place from Friday 1st through to Sunday 3rd July with some of the very finest comedians making an appearance over the course of the weekend.

Friday 1st July sees master of the one-liners, Gary Delaney headlining a night of comedy in a marquee on the lawn at Westbury Arts Centre in Shenley Wood. This sleepy arts centre will be transformed into a laughter factory for the weekend! Friday evening sees the start of the festival with doors opening at 6:30pm and an evening of comedy featuring four excellent comedians starts at 8:15pm.

On Saturday 2nd July, doors open at 2pm and there will be shows all afternoon and evening for you to choose from. Most shows last an hour, and there’ll be food and drink on offer all day long too served at reasonable prices. Acts performing include the exceptional Tom Binns as Ivan Brackenbury, Ian D Montfort and himself, Juliette Burton who made big splashes in Edinburgh last year, and WiFi Wars will be returning on Saturday evening with their interactive comedy show which will be soon making its way onto our TV screens. There are many more acts performing, visit the website for full details.

On Sunday 3rd July, Abandoman will be bringing the weekend to close with an hour long set at 10pm. This will be a perfect end to another day of comedy with a wide range of artists appearing. From the clown that is Spencer Jones through to the intrepid news reporter Jonathan Pie, and none other than the winner of the 2015 Edinburgh Comedy Award, Sam Simmons! Also appearing are award winning acts Brennan Reece, Larry Dean, Sarah Kendall and many more!!

Exact line-ups will be available on the day of the festival, however it is not possible for exact timings to be announced in advance due to the changing commitments of some of the acts. Your best bet is to arrive early, and enjoy a full day of comedy not to miss out!
