Comedy continues to tour across the United Kingdom before the end of the year, with a number of acts set to perform across the East Midlands region before Christmas time.
With the likes of Milton Jones and Jack Dee just gaining momentum with tours set to extend into 2025, a number of other performers such as Dawn French are now starting to wind down their stand-up shows as their mammoth tours come to an end.
But there’s still plenty taking place in areas such as Nottingham, Northampton, Leicester and many more across the region; with tickets still available now through Ticketmaster UK, here’s a look at our 19 picks of comedy shows taking place in the East Midlands before the end of 2024.
Will you be attending any of them or are there local shows perhaps we should know about? Feel free to contact the writer to let them know.
