The "Proper Funny Launch Party" returns to kick the Leicester Comedy Festival off with a bang! As always the show includes sets from a wide-variety of acts, ranging from previous Festival Award Winners/Nominees to some of the very finest emerging acts. All of which is seamlessly held together by Leicester's own Jay Neale (MC). The show has SOLD OUT for the last 10 years running so book your tickets early to avoid disappointment!
