Who's On?

We're beyond delighted to welcome back Crossmylaff favourite Gareth Waugh as our headline act for August!

Opening our show we welcome back the Queen of the Baltic, Scotland's No.1 Latvian comedian Gita Blaze!

We're also delighted to welcome back absurdist and impressionist Jack Brookmyre! A rising star in Scottish comedy, Jack was shortlisted for the BBC New Comedy Awards in 2024 and has been rattling around the circuit since 2022. Catch him before he goes stellar! We're also delighted to introduce two new acts in the shape of Jamie MacFun and Rowan Boyle! Laughter will ensue and it's all rounded off by Paul and Tom, aka house band The Isaac Haze and hosted by your regular MC, Fergus Mitchell!
