NEW ON SALE! Live Comedy Day

The UK without comedy? You must be joking? Despite bringing immeasurable joy to audiences, fostering empathy through storytelling, and contributing a whopping £1 billion to the UK economy, the live comedy sector is not traditionally recognised as part of cultural life in the UK and that needs to change. Come along & laugh with some of our favourite stand-up comedians:

"Crying with Laughter"

Good size venue. Given a table and table service for drinks with friendly staff. Been twice & first time I was crying with laughter. Very funny night & fab atmosphere.

"Good variety of acts"

Love this place!! I have been a few times now and had a brilliant night every time. They have a good variety of acts, friendly accommodating staff, really good atmosphere.

"Laughter is the best medicine"

If laughter is the best medicine, The Frog and Bucket is officially the best dispensary. - M.E.N

"Great value"

Always great value and very entertaining and a great venue. Often have special offers for comedy nights too. Reasonably priced drinks, some real ales on tap and great food. Burgers pizzas sharing platters etc all great value. Staff friendly too.

"Roared with laughter"

Went here with a Christmas do. The food was good and plenty, the assortment of drinks to everyone's liking, but you go here for the stand-up. I think the Frog and Bucket is the host of most of the talent in Manchester. I was truly sad it was over after two comedians. We all roared with laughter.

"Super chilled out vibe & very funny night out"

I surprised my boyfriend with tickets to a Thursday night show and we both had an amazing time. They pack a lot into a small space and there is a real intimate feel. The acts were all hilarious and very daring which was right up our street. Fantastic cocktails too!

"Barrel of laughs night"

Fun venue literally! Saturday nights are Barrel of laughs night with 3 acts. Best to book a table as it gets very busy, food (pizza) and two bars provide sustenance. It’s not the largest venue so don’t wear too much as it gets pretty warm. I came on my own and felt perfectly comfortable. Singles and couples may have to share tables but you are here to see the acts so it’s not a problem. Strong recommend.

"Date Night"

What a fab night for something different to do. Reasonably priced - good atmosphere. Well organised. Am really looking forward to doing this again.
