This spring, the tour will showcase some of the UK’s most successful TV comedians, homegrown heroes and rising stars everywhere from Inverness to Edinburgh, Stirling to Glasgow and more. 2024’s spring line-up includes: Larry Dean, Maisie Adam, Fred MacAulay, Shaparak Khorsandi, Jay Lafferty, Krystal Evans, Marc Jennings and more.
Presented by Scotland’s original home of live comedy, Gilded Balloon, The Big Fab Comedy Show is a sensational night of live stand-up comedy starring the TV names fans know and love alongside some of the hottest up-and-coming talent from across Scotland and the UK.
Maisie Adam said “I'm so excited to head back to Scotland for The Big Fab Comedy Show this year and play some shows in places I've never been to before! I always love any chance I get to play in Scotland and these shows have a brilliant line-up so I can't wait to get out on the road and perform some new material. See you there!”
Larry Dean said: “Buzzin for this tour! On with very funny comedians at lovely venues, and most of the gigs are only an hour away from home. Ideal!”
Fred MacAulay said: “It's great to be heading out on the road with some brilliant comics this spring for The Big Fab Comedy Show. I'm particularly looking forward to playing a gig just down the road from me in Glasgow before we head north to Stirling and Inverness - the shows are guaranteed to give you a good laugh so I'll see you there!”
This March, Jay Lafferty will host shows in Dunfermline, Edinburgh, Ayr, Dundee and Aberdeen, following a five-star Fringe 2023 run. Jay will be joined by headliner Maisie Adam, one of the UK’s biggest TV comics and frequent star of Live at The Apollo, A League of their Own and Mock The Week, plus top Scottish comedians Marc Jennings, Susan Riddell, Mark Black and Irish comic Eleanor Tiernan for a night of non-stop laughs.
In April, Chris Forbes, of Scot Squad and Other Murray Brother fame, and Fred MacAulay, one of Scotland’s most successful comics, will host shows in Glasgow, Stirling and Inverness. Headliner Shaparak Khorsandi, known for hit shows from Have I Got News For You to Live at the Apollo will be joined by Krystal Evans, Eleanor Morton and Eshaan Akbar in Stirling and Inverness, whilst Fred MacAulay headlines in Glasgow.
For a final spring fling in May, Jay Lafferty returns to host an incredible line-up with Scots favourite and award-winning comic Larry Dean headlining. Seen on shows from Richard Osman’s House of Games to Comedy Central’s Roast Battles, Larry Dean will keep comedy fans laughing at shows in Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Largs, Galashiels and his hometown of Glasgow. A top line-up of comics will join Larry and Jay including Josie Long, Lauren Pattison, Stephen Buchanan and Sam Lake.
A sensational night of live stand-up comedy starring TV names fans know and love, as well as the UK’s hottest up and coming talent, The Big Fab Comedy Show is a must for any comedy fan.
