Bristol’s flagship comedy competition is back for a second year! Come and watch the rising stars of comedy battle it out over three heats and two semi finals to be crowned the winner of The Bristol Comedy Competition 2026.
Hosted by the "hilarious at every turn” Bristol comic Burt Williamson (★★★★ - The Scotsman), these shows promise a great night out with big laughs, surprising acts, and a whole load of comedic talent waiting to be discovered. You can expect varied line-ups, from polished acts to newer voices trying something different, all in front of a supportive crowd.
Each heat and semi-final is decided by one audience vote and two judges’ votes, so your laughter really can make the difference in who goes through.
The semi-finals will be held at an iconic venue in the Bristol comedy scene, The Comedy Box, with special guest judges to help decide who goes through to the final.
Get your tickets now for a proper night of live comedy with the rising stars you’ll be seeing a lot more of in the future.
