NextUp Comedy

Pinned posts

Get ready for Edinburgh Fringe 2026!🥳🎉If you're new here, Fringe, the biggest arts festival in the world, is legendary for launching comedy stars…but it’s also legendary for completely draining your bank account. But the good news is we're doing the heavy lifting (and the walking) for you. 🤫 We’ve scouted the absolute best rising comics and we're streaming the festival's hottest shows straight to your screen. This August, get ready for pure, unfiltered, front-row Fringe brilliance from the comfort of your couch. Oh, and obviously you guys will be the first to know about the lineup...coming soon! Any predictions/wishes/desires/dreams? 🤗 Welcome to Ask a Comedian - our little corner of the NextUp community for getting closer to the people who do the mindblowing, and surprisingly full-on job of making people laugh. 🎭This channel is a place to drop questions for comedians about anything comedy. From writing and finding ideas, prep and pre-show routines, nerves and confidence, gigs that went great (and gigs that didn’t) to touring, crowd work, heckles, bombing, you name it! Ask what you’re curious about, whether you’re a comedy nerd, a casual watcher, or someone who performs. Keep it respectful (obvs!)How it works: We’ll post when we're meeting up with a comedian to film their special or chatting with them, you leave your questions in the comments and we’ll pick 3–5 to put to them, and share the answers back here. 🎤

6 days left of Fringe streaming!🎉

Who are you most looking forward to seeing?

A few updates too...

Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances we are not streaming Larry Dean's full show, but he will still be watchable on the HUGE mixed bill show on the 23rd. Apologies for the change of plan. In the spare time slot, we have confirmed 'The Big Show' from The Monkey Barrel which will feature 5 top comedians.

We've also got some HUGE comedy specials coming to our platform post-Fringe, check them out here.
