The Comedy Cellar - 5 Star Stand Up on the Royal Mile

The – Edinburgh’s Underground Hit Arrives at the Fringe

After a year of seven nights a week.

The Comedy Cellar finally hits the Edinburgh Fringe – and we’re doing it the only way we know how: raw, unfiltered, and proudly part of the PBH Free Fringe.

Hosted by Michael Porter and Ian Christopher, this is the first Fringe run from the club everyone’s been talking about – a grassroots, late-night comedy haunt that’s packed out every night in Edinburgh city centre. Think working-class voices, sharp punchlines, and no interest in toeing the mainstream line.

Expect a daily dose of alternative stand-up, dark humour, and the best new acts from across Scotland, Ireland and beyond. No ticket required – just show up, sit down, and get hit with the realest laughs of your festival.

We don’t just show up — we sell out.
