Now in its sixth year the festival which moved online last summer has become one of the most well received comedy festivals in the UK.

The event is co-directed by Chris Young and Jake Alexander.

Chris said: “After six years the independently run festival has organically grown, and this year is no exception with 30 comedians performing their full shows across four venues over five days, many of which are Edinburgh Fringe previews, tour shows and work in progress shows by established comics and TV names.
