Comedy in Glasgow 2023-2024

There are few better places to see comedy shows than in Glasgow, and a quick glance at this year’s schedule of events shows how much there is to enjoy! Comedy runs through the blood of Glaswegians, as it's the birthplace of legendary comedians Billy Connolly and Frankie Boyle, and audiences are well served across the city's wealth of entertainment venues. Glasgow is a regular touring destination for many of the UK's most well-known stand-up comedians.

Alongside stand-up comedy, Glasgow also hosts a range of alternative comedy gigs perfect for fans who want to discover new work. Keep an eye on the listings below for details of these in 2023-2024.
