How to book comedians for a pub or club comedy night
What a bill looks like
A comedy night is normally built as a bill: a host who links the acts, one or two middle acts and a headliner who closes the night. Each spot has a length, and the line-up is listed in running order on the night page.
Booking through a promoter
A venue can approach comedians one at a time, but each one needs a date, a fee and a confirmation, and an act that drops out leaves a gap in the bill. A promoter does that work across a whole roster, and can replace an act if one falls through.
Front Row Comedy builds the bill for each night from its own roster, and the comedians confirm their own availability for the night before it is announced.
Weddings, works dos and private events
A comedian for a private party, wedding or corporate event is a separate booking from a ticketed night. Our sister company, The Comedy Agency, handles those, and the Host Your Own Night form on the Front Row site is for venues that want a night in their own room.
