Birmingham Comedy Festival 2025

Birmingham Comedy Festival is back with another great line-up from Friday 3 to Sunday 12 October 2025.

The festival is an independent award-winning annual city-wide arts festival that has been drawing attention to Birmingham’s vibrant (and often unsung) comedy scene since 2001.

With a line-up that combines local talent with big-name acts, they’ve also welcomed the very best Brum and West Mids’ talent.

The festival is the winner of five What’s On Readers’ Awards for Best Festival.
