Exeter Comedy Festival will return

1ST-6TH June 2027!

We’re back! Exeter Comedy Festival returns 1–6 June 2027 for another week of laughter. Last year we packed out 24 venues with over 100 shows, with a curated lineup ranging from big names like Josh Widdicombe, Nish Kumar and Bridget Christie, to family-friendly comedy, workshops, book talks, a podcast, and our favourite South West talent. With Fore Street, Gandy Street, and the Quay at the heart of the action, the festival brings a unique buzz to Exeter’s independent scene.

Help make the festival happen

Exeter Comedy Festival is an independent festival, and it takes a lot of people to make it happen. If you love having exciting comedy on your doorstep, you can help us bring it back each year by becoming a Friend of the Fest on Patreon for £3 a month.

You’ll get early access to tickets, occasional extras and a place in our little festival community. More than anything, you’ll be helping us keep the festival going, and we really appreciate it.
