Friday Night Showcase at Creatures Comedy Club – 16 October 2026
The Friday Night Showcase at Creatures Comedy Club is your go-to gig for a proper night of live comedy in Manchester. This weekly showcase pulls together some of the region's sharpest comedians and rising talent, delivering fresh material and genuine laughs every Friday night. At just £14, it's brilliant value for a quality evening of entertainment that'll have you and your mates in stitches.
Creatures Comedy Club sits right in the heart of Manchester's Northern Quarter, surrounded by independent bars, vintage shops, and that creative energy the area's famous for. The venue itself has become a proper hub for comedy in the city, hosting everything from intimate open mics to packed Friday showcases. It's the kind of place that captures what makes Manchester's nightlife scene special – unpretentious, welcoming, and genuinely good fun.
Getting there's easy – it's a short walk from Market Street or a tram ride to Piccadilly if you're coming from further out. Doors open at 20:30, so arrive early to grab a decent seat and soak in the pre-show buzz. The crowd's always mixed – locals, students, comedy fans – so you'll fit right in whether you're a regular or your first time out. Just remember it's 18+ only, and bring cash just in case.
