Akaash Singh

Akaash Singh is playing The Hall, Aviva Studios on Sunday 1 November, with doors opening at 7pm. He's a stand-up comedian, podcaster and actor who first made his mark on TV with appearances on MTV's Wild 'n Out, Netflix's Brown Nation and HBO's The Leftovers.

Since then, he's moved into the podcasting world, co-creating Flagrant with fellow comedian and friend Andrew Schulz. It's become a huge success, and his comedy specials and clips have gathered nearly two billion views on YouTube alone. His 2024 special, Gaslit, has already passed six million views, and he also appears in the Hulu series #1 Happy Family USA, created by Ramy Youssef.

It's an 18+ show, so keep that in mind if you're thinking of bringing anyone younger. Standard tickets are £40, and there's a VIP package for £90 that includes a meet and greet and some merchandise. A £2.50 booking fee applies to all tickets, and all access tickets have to be bought directly from Factory International. The Hall is at Aviva Studios, Water Street, Manchester, M3 4JQ.
