What people are saying...

I always enjoy comedy at the Komedia. The venue is perfect for a comedy club – low ceilings and intimate, but also space for a good sized audience.

Another fantastic evening at Komedia’s Comedy Club! … the best way to spend your Friday or Saturday night in Brighton.

Thank you for having us, we had a lovely night!

Sergio Polo

Came with a couple of friends who don’t generally go to comedy. They loved the evening. Chantal Nash and Gbemi Oladipo were the favourites (Gbemi’s plane section had me crying!). They though the food was great and were impressed with the speed of service. Overall a brilliant night. Thank you for looking after us so well.

Thanks very much to all of you for hosting this – it was a great night!
