Smug Roberts Live is bringing a night of comedy and entertainment to Manchester on Friday 31 July 2026, kicking off at 8pm at the city centre's Overdraught Karaoke Bar. This is a brilliant opportunity to catch a live performance in an intimate setting that combines comedy with the interactive fun of karaoke, making it a standout night out for anyone looking for something different from the usual Manchester clubbing scene. At just £10 entry, it's excellent value for a Friday night experience, though note this is an 18+ event only.
Overdraught Karaoke Bar has built a solid reputation in Manchester's Northern Quarter as one of the city's premier venues for live entertainment and audience participation. The bar's lively atmosphere and central location make it a favourite spot for locals wanting proper nights out that go beyond standard drinks and dancing. The intimate setup means you'll get up close to the action and fellow revellers, creating that authentic Manchester buzz.
Getting there is straightforward – the venue is easily accessible by tram or a short walk from Manchester Piccadilly. Arrive early if you want a decent spot near the stage, grab a drink from the bar, and get ready for an unpredictable evening. Expect a mixed crowd of comedy enthusiasts and karaoke lovers, so bring your sense of humour and don't be surprised if you end up singing along – that's half the fun in places like this.
