Described by the Metro as "Fringe Heroes" and as the Fringe's "Beating Heart" by the Telegraph, Monkey Barrel Comedy believes there should be a taste of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe ALL YEAR ROUND.

Outstanding Fringe Show award winner Liam Withnail hosts, with a different line-up each night, featuring some of the country's top acts, award winning festival favourites and the very best up-and-coming talent around.

Every Thursday, we'll bring you some of the best highlights from Fringe 2023, with two shows each week jam-packed full of the all the best bits from the Edinburgh Festival Fringe!

Whilst later, in the lead-up to August, we offer a sneak peek of what's to come in 2024, as an array of some of the best acts from The Fringe work on their new stuff in preparation for their shows at the biggest comedy festival in the world... and you’re invited to come along and see it here first!
