Headliner: SIMON BRODKIN
“NO SHOW HAS MADE ME LAUGH MORE”
– The Times
With his “electrifying crowd work” (Bruce Dessau), Simon is one of the most exciting stand-up comedians to see live. His recent 170-date international ‘Screwed Up’ tour was extended four times due to incredible demand, including three nights at London’s prestigious Hammersmith Apollo, and a headline-grabbing appearance on the Royal Variety Performance.
A Special of ‘Screwed Up’ was released in February 2025 and is rapidly becoming the most viewed UK Special to premier on YouTube. Simon has a huge social media following across multiple platforms. His videos routinely get millions of views, with this clip breaking records when it was watched over 80 million times across all platforms.
Simon first rose to fame with his outrageous characters, including “comedy legend” (The Sun) Lee Nelson and preening Premier League footballer Jason Bent. As well as many TV appearances, he has also written and starred in three hugely successful BBC Three series of Lee Nelson’s Well Good Show and Lee Nelson’s Well Funny People.
“THERE AREN’T MANY BETTER COMEDIANS TO TURN TO”
– The Independent
With support from Holly Ludlow

Holly has ringlets and a complex about looking like a Powerpuff Girl – meaning she’s desperate to prove that, deep down, she’s actually super punk-rock. She has appeared in the BBC New Comedy Awards and won the West End New Act of the Year competition.
COMEDIAN COMPLETING THE LINE UP is Kev Mud

Kev Mud made a blistering start to his stand up career by either winning or getting to the finals of most national competitions in his first year. So it’s no surprise that by year three, he was booked to play on the main comedy stage at Glastonbury, and has been the subject of full page articles in the national press.
