BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND: Comedy Legend JEFF INNOCENT brings the heat to our stage with characteristic comic genius flair!

The man responsible for our most riotous show to date returns for a second bite of the apple.
East London's baddest grandad, JEFF INNOCENT is one of the great masters of the comic craft.
With a veritable hoard of awards under his belt across a landmark career which now spans four decades, Jeff has recently acquired a whole new generation of fans through his viral online video clips. Now enjoying new heights of Stand Up superstardom at 68 years of age, come and see the living legend at work!

Lyrical legend JAH DIGGA joins us to spit fire in his first Bristol show of 2026. A veteran MC with accolades now spanning three decades, Digga’s work has always stayed authentic and true to his life and times, fusing spoken word with raw hip-hop energy to chronicle life in Britain today.

With a recent run of electrifying releases which have the whole scene talking, come and see one of the greatest champions of DIY creativity in the UK today in action!

Alongside them, Bristol Dancefloor Veterans Ruffnek Diskotek take to the wheels of steel to close the show with an exclusive DJ set to remember. A pioneering party collective whose tireless dedication to the full spectrum of Carnival Sounds has seen them put on 100s of dances, play legendary sets at all of your favourite festivals and give a platform to countless “upcoming” artists (yes, including SKEPTA) over their landmark 21 years in the game, come and see one of Bristol’s legendary soundsystem collectives in action!

Bristol Poetry Hero Muneera Pilgrim, whose work shines light on and beautifies the truths that are all too often hidden and maligned by the mainstream narratives of the world today. A Poet, Cultural Producer, Writer and Broadcaster, here is a Master Storyteller, with all the powers of wit, empathy and visionary imagination at her command in a celebrated and tireless pursuit of justice and empowerment for globally non-centered people.

Bristolian Stand Up Supremo Troy Orchard, whose razor sharp comic talents have put Bristol on the map for audiences nationwide, and seen him land prestigious coverage on BBC sounds.

Comedy Queen Jasmine Darling, whose hilarious takes on modern living have made her a firm crowd favourite on the Bristol scene.

And RIOT ACT Instigators Sam Riot and Otis Jones raise their tins of Thatchers once more to host a fast-growing Bristolian crowd favourite open mic, with 3min slots available on the door to practitioners of all performance styles.
