Each set will be packed with age-appropriate comedy, bringing laughs to children, parents and grandparents alike.

The Glee Club founder Mark Tughan said: “We’re so excited to bring family-friendly comedy to Leeds for the first time. These shows will bring the same quality entertainment Glee Club is known for but to a whole new younger audience.

“We’ve always believed comedy is best enjoyed live, and these shows are all about creating a fun, welcoming experience that the whole family can enjoy together, and where parents can finally enjoy live stand-up without needing to arrange a babysitter.”

Suitable for ages seven and above, the line-up includes performers Steffan Alun, Mat Ricardo and Kirsty Newton, with more acts to be announced throughout the season.

Family-friendly food deals will also be available, making it the perfect weekend outing.

The Glee Club Family Comedy Shows kick off on October 18, with tickets on sale now.
