The British Comedian of the Year returns to Cheyne Walk Club as we once again host the Northampton heat of the competition, in partnership with The Comedy Crate.
Billed as the “FA Cup of Comedy”, the competition sees comedians battle it out across heats around the country for the chance to progress through the competition – and ultimately be crowned British Comedian of the Year.
On the night, eight comedians will take to the stage, each hoping to secure their place in the semi-finals. But there’s a twist – the result is decided by you!
The audience will vote for their favourite performances, meaning you’ll have a genuine say in which comedian progresses to the next stage of the competition.
With eight different acts in one evening, it’s a brilliant opportunity to discover new comedians, enjoy a fantastic variety of live stand-up and experience the excitement of a comedy competition where every performance counts.
The eventual winner of the competition will take home a £10,001 cash prize – the biggest in UK comedy.
We’re delighted to be hosting the Northampton heat again following last year’s event and to continue working with The Comedy Crate to support and grow live comedy here in Northampton.
Everyone is welcome – you don’t need to be a member of Cheyne Walk Club to attend.
Tickets are sold directly by The Comedy Crate.
