London's greatest comedy festival finally returns, bringing the spirit of the Fringe to Shoreditch!ARGComFest is a weekend comedy festival of Fringe previews and work-in-progress shows that takes place every July. The festival brings an attentively curated programme of sixty comedians — from big name TV favourites to up-and-coming newcomers — to the labyrinthine settings of Shoreditch Town Hall.
For a single (and ridiculously good value) ticket price, you get access a whole weekend of comedy. We sell day or weekend tickets with audience members free to see whichever acts they like — just like a music festival.
In 2016, ARGComFest became the first major comedy festival to have a gender balanced programme and it continues to champion diversity and representation within comedy.
This year’s festival will include creator of Channel 4’s Trip Hazard, the raucous and rip-roaringly funny Rosie Jones; reigning Edinburgh Comedy Award winner Jordan Brookes; silly, sexy, savage stand-up from Taskmaster titan Sophie Duker; and star of Netflix’s Philly Philly Wang Wang — it’s Phil Wang!
The weekend will also include three-time Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee Josie Long; star of Mock The Week, QI, Late Night Mash and her Amazon Prime comedy special Olga Koch; and the visceral, real and achingly brave Colin Hoult with the final outing of Anna Mann.
There’ll be stand-up from the host of BBC Sounds’ Wheel of Misfortune Alison Spittle, sketch from creators of Radio 4’s Soundbleed — Tarot, and jokes about skinny jeans, learning Welsh and white supremacy from All Killa No Filla’s Kiri Pritchard-McLean. Plus numerous Edinburgh Comedy Award nominees including Glenn Moore, Jess Fostekew and Mat Ewins.
Plus this year, for the first time ever, ARGComFest presents The Friday Night Show — a one-off spectacular featuring an all-star line-up.
