What people are saying...

I love the venue and am grateful to you for having me back!

Rod Thomas (Bright Light Bright Light)

Staff were all very friendly and welcoming… the sound and lighting were brilliant and a great evening was had by all attending.

Redkitewatcher64

Great intimate live music venue. Not your usual gig beers, good selection of Lager, Cider and Ale.

Simon Creevy

I wanted to say a massive thank you for hosting my son and I in the Studio. I was so impressed by the kindness, efficiency, and professionalism of all the team at Komedia. Everything was perfect – the sound, the room, and all of the staff.

Ben Waters

It was honestly the best concert experience I’ve had in a long time! Since being chronically ill, I’ve never felt completely welcome at venues. […] Komedia made me feel completely comfortable and confident in myself during the whole show! […] Although I traveled from London, I will most definitely be returning when I can, choosing it over London venues!

Maisie Cousins

Lovely, intimate venue. Great sound system. Perfect for small concerts.

Karolina Simpson

What a superb venue. I have been several times. Always a warm welcome and a safe space to enjoy the artists that are more “left field” than other more mainstream venues.

Andy Hoare

Cracking little venue, intimate, great acoustics, friendly staff, middle of town, nice beer selection, fair prices.What more could you want?

Jamie Womersley

Great place to see bands. Not too big . Not too small. Excellent views plus TV screens in all areas. Disabled parking in the street behind. Good eateries locally after gig.

Guy Russell

Komedia continues to have club nights that suit all ages. It is a brighton institution that should be revered.
