Our hit monthly comedy club is back for 2026. Programmed by Little Wander, Wales’ biggest comedy producers who are responsible for touring the likes of James Acaster, Bridget Christie and Ria Lina, it continues to showcase a host of award winners and TV names. Each show features a headliner, opening act and MC for the unbeatable price of £10.

HEADLINER – LI JIN HAO

Made in China and marinated in Singapore, Jin Hao is a writer and performer whose debut hour Swimming in a Submarine earned him a nomination for Best Newcomer at the Edinburgh Comedy Awards 2024. Loved and feared for his dry wit, gritty softness and surreal energy, he quickly became a Chortle Student Finalist and BBC New Comedy Awards Finalist, and was accepted into the Pleasance Comedy Reserve 2023.

OPENER – CARWYN BLAYNEY

Originally from rural Ceredigion, Carwyn Blayney is a comedian and actor as seen and heard on BBC One, S4C and Radio Wales with comedy credits on BBC Radio Four, Scotland and Wales.

He won Wales Unsigned Stand Up of 2024, was a 2023 So You Think You’re Funny? finalist and has done tour support for Elis James. Also worth noting he’s got a bronze Duke of Edinburgh Award despite occasionally having trouble with hay-fever.

MC – DAVID ALFIE WARD

David Alfie Ward is a British comedian born and raised in the east end of London. He started his stand up career in a small bar in his hometown, and has since gone on to play some of the biggest clubs in the UK, mainland Europe, South Africa, South East Asia, the Middle East, USA and Australia.
