Over-18s comedy night at The Drill, the historic arts and community venue on Free School Lane in Lincoln.
Red Herring Comedy Club is back at The Drill on Saturday 17 April 2027. It's an over-18s night, so keep that in mind if you're planning a group trip — it's strictly for the grown-ups.
The Drill is a versatile arts and community venue on Free School Lane in Lincoln, with a capacity of around 500. It opened in 1890 as the Drill Hall and spent its early years as a military training facility, before a significant refurbishment turned it into a cultural hub for live music, theatre, comedy and community activities. The work modernised the facilities while preserving the building's historical character, so it still feels like a proper piece of the city's past even as it hosts a regular programme of live performance.

For this one, the seating is unreserved, so there's no need to fret over a specific spot — you just turn up and take whatever's free. Doors open at 19:30 and the night runs through until 23:00, giving you a full evening of comedy rather than just a quick set. Tickets are £19.25 including fees.
