Live Comedy

Live comedy in Birmingham is an unbeatable night. We’re a favourite stop for comedy’s biggest names and have three of the best comedy clubs around just waiting to entertain.

Glee Club in the Arcadian is a Birmingham institution. With an enviable line-up of the freshest comedy acts, music and spoken word, the Glee Club is the perfect place for a night out with friends.

Jongleurs has a new home on Hurst Street. Once you’ve enjoyed the top-notch line-up, dance the night away in a club known for four cool and creative bars, the New York Disco, Parisian Boudoir and pumping main club.

Highlight is Birmingham’s biggest comedy club yet.  This flagship venue on Broad Street is part of an all-round entertainment bonanza. As well as the best in UK and international comedy, there’s Risa's six bars and dance areas downstairs too. So when the encores are over, you can dance the night away.

Comedy also makes a regular appearance at The Public in the heart of West Bromwich, the venue hosts regular comedy nights featuring upcoming and established comedians. Solihull Arts Complex hosts a monthly comedy night with three different acts from the London Comedy circuit. Many comics are Comedy Store regulars and Barnstormers Comedy promoters pride themselves on finding the funniest, smartest and silliest comedians out there.

Keep an eye out at our theatres where the world’s top comedians regularly call in during UK tours. There’s also a network of comedy pubs around the city where tomorrow’s Frank Skinner or Lenny Henry will make their mark.
