Komedia Comedy Club

If you're looking ahead to May, the Komedia Comedy Club on Saturday, May 9th, is already shaping up nicely. Komedia is a fixture here in Brighton, having won the Chortle award for Best Comedy Venue in the South and East 18 times, so they know how to put together a solid night that celebrates diverse, emerging, and cutting-edge comedy. This particular show is happening in the Komedia Basement at 44-47 Gardner Street. Doors open at 7:00 PM, giving you an hour to settle in before the comedy kicks off at 8:00 PM.

The line-up for the 9th features a strong mix of talent, with Kate Barron taking on MC duties, supported by Ahir Shah, Alice India, Freya McGhee, and Stuart Laws. As always with live comedy, the line-up is subject to change, but that gives you an idea of the caliber they aim for. Just a heads-up on logistics: seating is unreserved cabaret style, so if you want a specific spot, getting there when the doors open might be wise. Crucially, this is strictly an 18+ event, and they are serious about checking physical photo ID if you look under 25. Also, be aware that comedy shows sometimes include content that might be a bit edgy or potentially upsetting for some audience members.

Since the show starts early, you might want to make a full evening of it. Komedia offers a full, freshly prepared menu, and if you book a Meal Deal ticket in advance, you can save up to £5 per person compared to ordering on the night, though food is available either way. If you're planning a bigger outing, they also offer group discounts: use the code GROUPDISCOUNT6 for £5 off per ticket if you have six or more people, or GROUPDISCOUNT10 for groups of ten or more. The venue itself is generally well-regarded for its accessibility, with past attendees often mentioning how helpful the staff are, particularly regarding wheelchair access. If you need to contact them directly about booking or accessibility, the Box Office number is 01273 647100.
