Comedy Gala 2012 in aid of Waverley Care will be hosted this year by Josh Widdicombe and Seann Walsh on Tuesday 23rd August at the Edinburgh Festival Theatre. Book early to avoid missing Edinburgh's biggest comedy event.

The Comedy Gala 2012 in aid of Waverley Care will feature the cream of the comedy crop at this year's Fringe and, as with previous years will also be recorded for television. Meaning that even if you can't make it to the Festival you won't be missing out on all of the fun.

Set to be the Festival's biggest comedy event this August, the Edinburgh Comedy Gala will showcase some of the finest comedic talent at the Fringe in aid of Waverley Care, Scotland's largest charity providing care and support to people living with HIV and Hepatitis C.

With some very exciting big names already signed up to take part in this year's show plus more to be announced, Comedy Gala 2012 in aid of Waverley Care promises to be the highlight of any comedy fan's Edinburgh Fringe Festival Diary.
