Live Comedy
Creatures Comedy Festival (Manchester)
Tuesday 15th July to Saturday 26th July 2025
After a hugely successful debut, Creatures Comedy Festival is back and it's gonna be bigger, bolder and badder than ever. Presented by Manchester's only 7 night a week comedy club, the festival will focus on creating a space outside of London for acts to preview their shows before Edinburgh, giving Manchester residents access to shows right before they hit the world's biggest arts festival in August.
From 15th - 26th July 2025, the festival will once again kick off the summer showcasing over 30 shows from household names to rising stars with the hottest comedy talent from the North taking over the festival on Sunday July 20th.
This year will also see the first Creatures Comedy Competition to crown the Best Comic in the North West. The competition will hold weekly heats showcasing rising stars and seasoned pros battling it out for comedy glory. The funniest act will be crowned during the festival.
