Rufus Rice: Rice Age

If you're already planning your summer calendar, there's a date in mid-June you might want to circle. Rufus Rice is bringing his show, Rice Age, to Brighton for a night of comedy and music. This is happening on Wednesday, June 17, 2026, right in the heart of the North Laine at Komedia. The specific location is the Komedia Basement at 44-47 Gardner Street, a spot known for its intimate atmosphere, making it a great setting for this kind of performance.

The event is being presented by Live Nation and comes with a few key logistical details to keep in mind. If you plan on grabbing a drink or settling in early, doors open at 6:30 PM. The show itself is scheduled to start an hour later, at 7:30 PM. It’s strictly an 18+ event, so keep that in mind when making plans. The format is described as having Cabaret-style seating, which usually means unreserved spots, suggesting that arriving closer to the doors opening time might be beneficial if you have a preferred view. Rufus Rice won't be alone either; the billing mentions he will be joined by 'special guests' or support acts.

When it comes to getting hold of tickets, they are currently available on General Onsale through major platforms like Live Nation and Ticketmaster. While some reports suggest that availability is low, tickets are still listed, so if you are keen to go, it’s probably best to check sooner rather than later. The pricing starts from £21.35. Considering the venue and the format—a mid-week show featuring comedy and music in a smaller space—it looks set to be a solid night out in the city.
