A “born and bred Brummie,” Harry Jenkins resides in Selly Park, Birmingham. He made his stand-up debut in December 2022 for Reckless Comedy at The Royal Pug in Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, appearing alongside established comic Andrew Bird, and since January 2025 has been pursuing comedy full-time – as both an event promoter and comedian.
“I just try and come across likeable and affable on stage and just talk about anything I think might be funny and more than anything just enjoy being up there,” he says of his approach to stand-up which has been shaped by his admiration for such acts as Billy Connolly, Frank Skinner, Russell Howard, Lindsey Santoro and Rob Rouse.
With just 18 months worth of gigs under his belt, Harry Jenkins is a rising star of the UK comedy circuit, known for his dry, dead pan, irreverent take on every day life.
Harry was crowned 2024’s Leicester Comedy Festival Comedy World Cup Winner, The Funhouse Champion Gong Winner of 2024, Nottingham Comedy Review’s New Act of the Year and was a finalist in the Southport Comedy Festival Comedian of the Year Competition in late 2023.
He also was a runner up at the infamous Comedy Store Gong Show and won his heats of this years Get-Up Stand-Up New Act of the Year Competition, the Leicester Square New Comedian of the Year and Kung Fu Pug New Comedian of the Year. Harry was also a finalist in the prestigious 2024 Welsh Unsigned Stand-Up (WUSA).
Harry regularly performs with the likes of The Stand Up Club in London and has supported names like Ignacio Lopez and Luisa Omielan on their tours.
