Top comics to perform in Derby, Leeds, Nottingham and more

An all-star line-up is set to perform at Just The Tonic's Comedy Shindig this summer. Tickets for the performances are available now.

Consisting of a mixture of undercover and outdoor shows, the massive line-up includes Bill Bailey, Dara O' Briain, Milton Jones, Laura Lexx, Reginald D. Hunter, Rich Hall and Jason Manford. The shows will revitalise a comedy scene which has been hit hard by covid, in some cases marking the first performances from the comics since restrictions were eased.

Founder of Just the Tonic Darrell Martin says, 'We decided that these were going to be festival events, and that they needed a name.

'We have called them Just The Tonic's Comedy Shindig. From 300 capacity intimate events in covered outdoor spaces through to big 3000 capacity main stages on festival sites, Just the Tonic Comedy Shindigs will bring quality comedy to a field near you (with a bar, of course).'
