Sadly we’ve decided to close Southsea’s secret comedy club. We will be changing this page to one that covers all the coming weeks’ comedy nights in Portsmouth and Southsea, so you can see them all on one page.

(In reality we have so many comedy clubs around Portsmouth that we have decided to focus on the remaining ones and we hope you’ll join us there.)

Coming up this month we have

⭐️Comedy At The Fort - Portsmouth Distillery - https://theportsmouthdistillery.com/shop/comedyatthefort39/

⭐️Comedy at the square tower - old Portsmouth - https://www.stitches.fun/old-portsmouth-comedy-club/

⭐️Comedy at spinnaker tower - www.comedyatthetower.com

Comedy is back at Portsmouth Distillery this September! Join us for an evening of brilliant stand-up inside our historic home at Fort Cumberland, featuring a fantastic lineup guaranteed to deliver big laughs.
