A top class line up of stand ups in a fantastic central Bristol venue topped off by a headliner on the verge of becoming a massive name on the comedy scene. And all this for Free!
Enjoy a great mix of comedians with both the established and those just starting. Regardless, they're all A* when it comes to funny. In the past Zed Alley has had touring circuit comedians, BBC new comedian semi finalists and Edinburgh festival veterans.
The Bristol comedy scene is just that packed with talent, it's just that most people in the city don't realise it. That's what we're here to do - showcase that talent for no cost to you. We don't want to make money, we just want to make you laugh.
The line-ups are always diverse in terms of styles, backgrounds and sense of humour but there's one thing that links them all. They're hilarious and keen to make you laugh. Why not come down and see if they can succeed? Your money back if they don't. The whole night is inclusive. It doesn't matter where you're from, we'll bet we can make you laugh and leave the venue smiling. So far we've been quids in with this gamble.
Zed Alley are confident that their night is as good as any other comedy night that you'd happily pay for. You'll see material that paid audiences will see, you'll see new stuff that will become a staple of a comics set (all because you laughed at it) and you'll see the next stars on the edge of breaking through and being the next Edinburgh legend, as well as an ever present on your TV screens.
It's the newest underground events space located in the vibrant heart of Bristol's city centre and their friendly staff are waiting to ply you with drinks to go with our laughs. The bunker feel of the venue lends itself to a great comedy atmosphere and we love to leave the audience feeling like they've had a fun and friendly time. While of course making you laugh yourself silly as well.
We're here in a lane right next to Bristol Beacon every 1st/3rd Tuesday of the month. Doors open from 7.30. Show at 8.00. Do join us. You can't beat a bit of live comedy. Especially without denting your wallet.
