Friday night comedy from the excellent Chuckle Busters.

A rotation of favourite shows from the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and famous names trying out new material joined by a selection of budding newer acts handpicked from the vibrant Bristol comedy scene.

Tonight brings a pairing of nicely off-kilter comics.

EatDrink24/7 Launch Party is back on July 8 2026!
Exclusive collabs from Bristol’s favourite food vendors, available for one night only. Be first to grab your free copy of the EatDrink24/7 guide – plus every ticket comes with a free limited-edition beer can.

Headliner is Chris Betts (pictured). “Chris’ mind is a curious place, where the philosophical meets the ridiculous. His shows are a perfect balance of incisive social satire and complete silliness. He has a style that is equal parts confident, thoughtful, ridiculous and mischievous.

“An enticing prospect, a Canadian who deals in off-kilter thoughts sharpened by the occasional prod at taboo topics” Independent

Plus Liam Pickford:

“Liam has crafted his own unique brand of stand up, mixing cleverly honed material and punchlines with excitingly unpredictable audience interaction mixed in with a hint of whimsy, all delivered in a wonderfully unenthusiastic and grumpy style.

“He’s got funny bones, and a scattergun mind that doesn’t quite work like anybody else’s” Chortle
