About This Event

The Comedy Circus is coming to Stage And Radio on Wednesday 23 September 2026 at 7pm, bringing a vibrant night of stand-up comedy to one of Manchester's favourite venues. This is the perfect midweek escape if you're after a proper laugh with quality comedians doing their thing in an intimate, energetic setting. Whether you're a comedy regular or just fancy a night out with mates, The Comedy Circus delivers that brilliant mix of sharp wit and crowd banter that makes Manchester's comedy scene so special.

Stage And Radio sits right in the heart of Manchester city centre, and it's honestly one of the best spots for live entertainment in town. The venue's got this brilliant underground vibe that just works for comedy – tight acoustics, proper sound system, and an atmosphere that gets audiences laughing from the moment you walk in. It's surrounded by decent pubs and bars too, so you can grab a drink before or after without any hassle.

Get there early to bag a decent seat and soak up the atmosphere – these nights fill up quickly on a Wednesday. Expect around two hours of stand-up from some cracking comedians, and bring cash as well as cards just in case. The city-centre location means you're well served for transport, with Piccadilly Gardens and Market Street stops nearby, so getting home's easy even if you've had a few laughs and a pint.
