Friday 3 - Sunday 5 October 2025

The festival is made up of around 50 individual shows which take place around Aberystwyth from Friday – Sunday on the first weekend in October.

Each show has its own capacity depending on the size of the room which range from 40 – 900 seats, all located within the festival hub at the Arts Centre on the University Campus.

You only buy a ticket for the show(s) you want to see, allowing you to go and watch as much or as little as you want across the weekend. Certain shows will sell out so if there’s a show you really want to see then it is best to buy tickets in advance via the website.

If you’d rather take your pick on the weekend, there is a pop-up festival box office in the Arts Centre building  selling tickets to all remaining shows.

Many of the ticketed shows have an age limit so it is worth checking before buying tickets for anyone under 18. There are dedicated family shows, including performances for young children.

However, there’s plenty going on in and around the town to fill the gaps around your comedy schedule!

For outdoor enthusiasts, Aberystwyth has some stunning coastal walks, scenic bike trails and incredible nature reserves all right on the doorstep.

We look forward to welcoming everyone in October!
