A bevy of top drawer comedians are set for a festive show in Brighton this weekend.

The talented group will be at the Brighton Dome for Live at Christmas on Saturday, December 20.

Tickets can be purchased from brightondome.org.

As the Dome’s flagship comedy showcase, the event mixes comedy veterans with up-and-coming talents.

Headlining the event is Taskmaster star and surrealist genius Sam Campbell, whose international acclaim soared after winning the Edinburgh Comedy Award for Best Show in 2022.

Sharing the stage with Campbell is Simon Amstell, known for presenting Never Mind the Buzzcocks and starring in stand-up specials on the BBC and Netflix.

He is also a screenwriter and director, whose feature film Benjamin premiered at the London Film Festival.

Also on the lineup is another Taskmaster star, Lou Sanders, alongside Funny Women Stage Award finalist Sharon Wanjohi.

Live at Christmas is hosted by Brighton’s own comic star and current Taskmaster champion Maisie Adam.
