The show runs from 20:00 until 22:30, and it is set up to be a fairly intimate experience. One thing to note about this venue is that they maintain a strict no-heckling policy, which generally keeps the atmosphere focused on the performers rather than audience interruptions.

The lineup for this specific evening features Paul F. Taylor as the headliner. He will be joined by Ross Smith, who is taking on the role of MC for the night. The organisers have also scheduled a group of supporting acts to fill out the programme, including Serena Smart, Lucas Jefcoate, Jacob Hatton, and Sally Firth. It is a mix of established comedians who have appeared on television and stage, alongside some newer names from the UK circuit.
Tickets for the event are priced at ยฃ11.00. It is worth keeping in mind that while this is the standard price, these figures can sometimes fluctuate, so it is always good to check the official details before booking. The event is aimed at adults who enjoy live comedy in a smaller, more personal setting. Since Artista is located right in the heart of Brighton, it is a straightforward spot to get to if you are already planning to be in the city centre that evening.
