Scotland’s original and world famous purpose-built comedy club, The Stand, is not only at the heart of the Fringe, but open 361 days per year. Playing host again to impressive comedy bills, it’s not to be missed. The atmosphere is relaxed and informal, with cabaret-style seating and standing room. All tickets are general admission and the venue is a mixture of seating and standing. First come, first served, queuing advised.
Red Raw
Our long-running weekly beginner’s showcase is regarded as the best open mic night in the UK. Every Monday in Edinburgh, Tuesday’s in Glasgow and Wednesday’s in Newcastle, catch up to ten new acts – some treading the boards for the very first time. This is where everyone starts and it’s your chance to see the stars of tomorrow today. Watch out for older hands dropping in to try out new material too.
Not only does The Edinburgh Stand bring you the freshest comedy; our kitchen produces delicious freshly cooked food most evenings too!
