Craicfriars Comedy: The One-Off Wednesday
Advertisement
For one week only we’re doing things a bit different with a ONE-OFF WEDNESDAY edition of our stand-up comedy show on July 22nd at Blackfriars Basement. But no matter the day of the week, we’ll still be bringing you the best up-and-coming stand-up comedians Scotland has to offer. Joining our resident host Paddy Linton for this one will be Daniel Petrie, Hannah Knowles, Harris McGlynn and many more!
Your host for the night will be our resident compere Paddy Linton, a stand-up comedian from Blackhill, Glasgow. Paddy mixes storytelling from his working class upbringing with observations about Glasgow’s leafier suburbs. His impressive stand-up skills have fast become highly in demand at some of the best comedy shows in the country. He also co-runs the hugely popular quiz and gong shows at Blackfriars. In March 2025 he was chosen to open for Darren Connell at Glasgow’s legendary King’s Theatre. In August 2026 he will be bringing his solo show ‘Paddy Issues’ to the Edinburgh Fringe.
