Networking events
BCG Pro runs social and networking events around the country, exclusively for our members. Some are simple drinks, others involve taking in a keynote talk on a topic of interest before relaxing with other comedy creatives to mull over what you've just learned.
Below is details on the cities we're planning to visit over the next twelve months, as well as some other locations we will happily organise an event in, if there proves to be enough interest.

Coming soon
London May
We aim to hold a meet-up in London once a month. Stay tuned for details on our next one.
Brighton May
We were last in Brighton in February 2024, but up for coming again. Maybe for the Fringe in May?
Liverpool May
Liverpool has a good comedy heritage. Up for meeting up in the city one evening in May?
Glasgow 22 May 2024
We're considering holding a meet-up in Glasgow on Wednesday 22nd May in the evening, to tie in with the BBC Comedy Festival taking place that night (and the next day). But will everyone be in the city? Let us know if you're going to be there, so we can get an idea of numbers.
Manchester June 2024
We have put on events in Manchester before, and are looking to come back in June. We're not sure when in the month yet, but hit the button to be kept in the loop.
Edinburgh August 2024
Each year we hold meet-ups in Edinburgh during the Fringe festival.
Potential ideas
Southampton
Hampshire folk, pick this one if you would like us to meet in the West, rather than in Portsmouth.
Reading
How about a comedy chat after we have taken pictures of the Reading Reading Library sign?
Portsmouth
For Hampshire, it is probably going to be Portsmouth or Southampton...
Oxford
A lovely city to visit. Let us know you can be there.
Norwich
Norfolk is one of the only counties to have managed to spawn its own BBC sketch show aimed at new talent. Let's meet up there?
Newcastle
It was lovely to see people in Newcastle in early 2022. Shall we come back?
Leicester
We tend to hold a meet-up at the Leicester Comedy Festival each February. Up for it in 2025?
Leeds
The new home of Channel 4... could be a good place to gather?
Ipswich
We must admit we've never been to Ipswich. Is there enough interest in a meet-up for us to come?
Guildford
Hello Surrey creatives... up for meeting in Guildford?
Exeter
Press the button if you're in the West Country and would be up for meeting in Exeter.
Chelmsford
How about some networking in Essex?
Cardiff
We hope to be back in the Welsh capital at some point soon, so let us know if you're up for meeting in this area.
Canterbury
Interested in a Kent meet-up? Let us know by pressing the button.
Cambridge
A city with lots of comedy history. Care to join us here?
Bristol
We had a meet-up in this city in November 2022, but we are happy to return if people are up for it again?
Birmingham
We held a meet-up in Birmingham in November 2023. Do please register your interest for us to hold another in this city.
Bath
We held a meet-up at the 2024 Bath Comedy Festival. It looked like the appetite was there to do one again in April 2025...
If we didn't mention a city near you, do contact us and we will add it to the list of potential options.
