Harrogate Theatre is preparing to welcome some of the biggest names in comedy as Harrogate Comedy Festival returns this autumn with another outstanding programme of stand-up, improv, storytelling and family entertainment. Harrogate Comedy Festival programmer Marcus Romer said: Harrogate Comedy Festival has become one of the highlights of our year, attracting some of the country’s finest comedians alongside exciting new voices. We can’t wait to welcome audiences back for another fantastic festival, filled with unforgettable performances, plenty of laughter and the unique atmosphere that makes Harrogate Comedy Festival such a special event. Now in its 17th year, Harrogate Comedy Festival has built a reputation for bringing nationally acclaimed acts to North Yorkshire, while providing audiences with opportunities to discover rising stars before they become household names. Harrogate Theatre is incredibly grateful for the support of Harrogate Comedy Festival’s primary partner Vet Dentist.
