Spend a few hours with us at the Portsmouth Distillery; experience our bar, the Rum Shack, and enjoy a night of amazing live comedy

Presenting... Comedy @ The Fort #22!

We are opening up our cocktail 'Rum Shack', and indoor bar exclusively for this event - serving mulled wine, fresh cocktails, as well as our delicious spirits, throughout the whole night... And, we will have our very own pizza oven cooking up fresh, handmade artisan pizzas, which will be on sale until around 19:45!

Doors open at 17:30, with the acts commencing at 20:00.

This months line-up is:

Jake Lambert - star of live at the Apollo and hand picked to support Michael McIntyre on all his global arena tour dates

Esther Manito - star of live at the Apollo and ITV’s stand up sketch show

Sean McLoughlin - star of live at the Apollo, the Russell Howard hour and tour support for Ricky Gervais!

Local hero and star of the "Bring Back the Eighties" Podcast, James Alderson is, as always, MC-ing!

With appearances ranging from national TV series to live shows, and many awards between them find out a bit more about them below.

----

All these fantastic comedians, with James Alderson, once again as MC, delicious drinks, artisan pizza and an amazing location - this is the event to be at (even if we do say so ourselves)...

We look forward to seeing you there!

Please note drinks & pizza are to be purchased separately. Not included in the ticket price.

The stage and seating is in a marquee. Heating is provided but please dress appropriately.

Here is a bit more about each of the comedians:

Jake Lambert

Described as ‘a joke machine’ by The Telegraph. Jake has performed stand-up all over the world supporting the likes of Michael McIntyre, Romesh Ranganathan, and Jack Dee.

His 2022 Edinburgh show Liminal was one of the best reviewed shows of the festival.
