About This Event

Our long-running weekly beginner’s showcase is regarded as the best open mic night in the UK. Catch up to ten new acts – some treading the boards for the very first time. This is where everyone starts and it’s your chance to see the stars of tomorrow today. Watch out for older hands dropping in to try out new material, too. Food is now back on selected shows courtesy of KHAO BOI, Thai and Southeast Asian inspired street-food to accompany your evening of entertainment. We’d suggest arriving early for seats and to order food, supplies are not infinite and once they're gone, they're gone! We have a group booking policy- for groups larger than 6 people please enquire with our Box Office at admin@thestand.co.uk before booking so that we can check that our venue management team is able to accommodate your group. When you get in touch, please include the show that you're interested in, the venue the show is on at, your group size and a little info about the nature of your group. Please note we do not accept stag or hen groups at any of our shows. This event has unreserved seating and standing room.
