Manchester Comedy Night: Comedian of the Year Semi-Final
If you're after a proper night of live comedy in Manchester, the Comedian of the Year Semi-Final Heat at Creatures Comedy Club on Sunday 19 July 2026 is exactly what you need. This is your chance to catch up-and-coming comedians battling it out for a shot at the final, meaning you'll be watching genuinely hungry performers bringing their A-game to the stage. At just £10, it's brilliant value for an evening of quality stand-up in an intimate setting.
Creatures Comedy Club sits right in the heart of Manchester's Northern Quarter, the city's creative hub where independent venues, vintage shops, and buzzing bars line the streets. The venue itself has earned a solid reputation for hosting some of the best emerging talent on the circuit, with a proper comedy crowd who actually know their stuff. You'll be surrounded by proper Manchester comedy fans rather than just punters after a night out.
The show kicks off at 20:30, so rock up a bit early to grab a drink and settle in. The 18+ age restriction keeps the atmosphere focused on comedy rather than chaos, and the intimate room means you'll feel genuinely close to the action on stage. Get your tickets sorted early as semi-finals tend to draw a decent crowd—this is grassroots Manchester comedy at its finest.
