Blizzard: A Comedy Safe Space Featuring Amy Gledhill, Brandon Craig, Tony Wright, Amy Vreeke, Red Redmond, Pete Selwood & Jonny Collins

Please note this is an 18+ event

At Blizzard, we aim to provide a genuine alternative to mainstream clubs. Our ethos is to be an Inclusive, Accessible & above all Hysterical comedy club.

We aim to provide a comedy space that is safe for all, and as such we have a strict content policy on: No Racism, Sexism, Homophobia, Transphobia, Classism, Ablism, etc. And we make every effort to content warn any potentially triggering material that may take place.

Afraid of being picked on? At Blizzard there is no unsolicited audience interaction – if you agree to take part in audience participation, you may get a sticker at the door, otherwise, no one will pick on you.

Our pilot night features the one and only Amy Gledhill headlining: Known for her unique mix of everyday observations and off-beat tangents, Amy is a multi-award winning comic brimming with natural warmth and charm.

Amy is also one half of The Delightful Sausage, a critically lauded comedy double act who were picked as one of the top things to see by The Guardian.
