We are very excited to welcome back British Comedian of the Year, and it's set to be a barrel of laughs!
The regional heats of the Petfringe Comedian of the Year competition will be held here at Sandy Park, where we already have a well-established comedy night.
The event takes place on Friday 9th September and will include nine of the best rising stars of comedy, who will perform for the chance of reaching the Grand Final. The competition looks to support comedians who are funny week-in, week-out around the UK yet are often overlooked by other awards.
