Leeds comedy club the Glee Club launches January programme - with up to 50% tickets

Forget the January gloom, the Glee Club is prescribing a heavy dose of laughter this month to help Leeds residents beat the post-Christmas slump.

The venue has launched its ‘January, But Funny’ comedy season, bringing a stellar line-up of talent to the city every weekend.

To make the medicine even easier to swallow, comedy fans can bag tickets for up to 50% off the standard price for these weekend shows, including upcoming performances from Troy Hawke, the moustachioed, erudite greeting-card-enthusiast who has become a viral sensation, and the master of deadpan delivery, Matt Bragg.

These headline sets are part of a curated month of side-splitting talent designed to ensure that the year starts with a roar of laughter rather than a whimper.

With a 30-year pedigree that has played host to industry titans like Peter Kay, Sarah Millican, and Michael McIntyre, the club is bringing that same high-calibre energy to the city and beyond the jokes, the venue is leaning into the full night out experience.

The club encourages guests to dive into their extensive menu of cocktail pitchers, beer buckets, and bar favourites, which can be pre-ordered or enjoyed right at your table during the show, but responsibly - no one likes that unfunny heckler, and the club is famous for their strict no talking policy during sets, ensuring that the comedy remains the star of the show.
