The Big Comedy Bash 2025

After the phenomenal success of our previous sell-out show, we’re thrilled to return with another unforgettable night of live comedy, this time hosted by the legendary Griff Rhys Jones.
Known for his iconic work on Not the Nine O’Clock News, Alas Smith & Jones, and a lifetime career onstage and on television, Griff will be taking the reins for this special fundraising event, appearing amidst his own hit national ‘in conversation’ tour.

Joining Griff is a stellar hand-picked line-up of top comedy talent… 

Jayde Adams: The award-winning Bristolian powerhouse behind Serious Black Jumper and Snackmasters, brings her bold, brilliant unfiltered comedy and unmistakable stage presence to the night.

Stephen K Amos: Appearing ahead of his brand-new national stand-up tour Now We’re Talking. Known for his infectious energy, razor-sharp observations, and acclaimed appearances on Live at the Apollo and QI,

Nabil Abulrashid: Razor-sharp stand up — as seen on Britain’s Got Talent and Live at the Apollo. Bold and Provocative.  

Andy Hamilton: Currently touring, brings his signature dry wit and sharp observations, familiar to audiences from Have I Got News For You, News Quiz and Outnumbered. 

Lucy Porter: A stand-up legend from Mock the Week, Just a Minute and The News Quiz, delivers her trademark blend of smart, charming, and hilarious storytelling.
