What people are saying...

What a line up, everyone was brilliant, haven’t laughed that much in a long time!

I had a fantastic Easter weekend shows at Komedia last Friday & Saturday! I truly had a fun time with super funny Jordan Brooks, Jack Hester, and Jodie Mitchell at packed room (both nights!). The food was delicious (had Portobello mushroom burger and I highly recommend), Dave and team looked after us so well and they are just so wonderful. And what a fun & loving audiences!

Some nights you go to see comedy… Other nights, you witness new stars being born. Watching new voices develop and seeing one of my favourite new acts (James Ellis) headlining the night was superb.

If you ever get the chance, check out Comic Boom Comedy Club. Really great to see the local Brighton comedy scene continuing to build and thrive 🤘

Taylor M.

The best comedy show we’ve ever seen at Komedia, it absolutely delivered!!! They all nailed it. I definitely recommend checking Komedia Comedy Club out — it is the perfect spot to have a good laugh! P.S. Cerys Nelmes & Touissant Douglass my absolute favourites!!

Great for an evening’s entertainment. Central location, good service and delivered on the comedy.

Everything was so accessible and with ease, we truly had such a lovely and comfortable time. It means a lot to have such a positive experience at a place we love. The comedy itself was incredible and we were cackling the entire time! This was my first night out of the house in months, thank you so very much for making it so joyful and comfortable. You are all brilliant!!!!!

Thank you for hosting me! It was such a pleasure working with your incredible team. I felt truly looked after. Special shout-out to Steve and Misti on tech—you’re both stars 🧡

Veronica von Beaverhausen

Thanks again for having me last week. I was very, very happy… and my first solo show in Brighton! Thrilled we got such a good crowd.

Mark T Cox

A MASSIVE thank you for making us feel so welcome and for all your support you gave us. Thank you to Steve (our Technician on the night) and Taylor (behind the bar) for being sooo brilliant and helpful. Big thank you to the doorman at Komedia for being so lovely too! 😊

The accessibility at Comic Boom Comedy Club was absolutely brilliant. I had emailed beforehand and your communication about accessibility was great. The staff at the event were also great. I really appreciate how easy it was in a wheelchair as not all venues are so accommodating.
