Comedy Arena

Mar 09, 2010 Latitude has earned a fierce reputation for presenting the searingly sharp edge of comedy and this year Latitude will not disappoint with an incredible wealth of talent throughout the bill. 

One of the festival’s most enduring and prestigious fixtures, the Comedy Arena, sees a huge and varied bill of comic splendour. Taking in the finest names on the stand-up comedy roster as well as emerging acts on the cusp of widespread success, there are sure to be many unmissable moments.  

Vastly lauded by all who spend time within its bosom, you’re likely to have to hold back some energy in preparation as you’ll be expelling it in laughter and mirth for the duration of your visit. But don’t be mistaken, comedy magic will be sprinkled all throughout the programme in the Cabaret, Literary and Film & Music Arenas to name but a few.
