FAQ
Do you take group bookings?
We do, but they are limited and you cannot book large groups online. If you are a looking to book a group into one of our shows, please send us an email to boxoffice@monkeybarrelcomedy.com
Where do I pick up my tickets?
It's all online these days;Â we will email you a confirmation of your booking. You can print it off and bring it with you, or just show us on your phone when you arrive.
Can I buy tickets on the door?
Absolutely, you can buy on the door. Weekends often sell out so we would recommend booking online. Our box office is located in the Barrel Bar, which is open before all our shows.
Does my ticket guarantee me a seat?
Yes! We will only ever sell tickets for seats we have available. Whilst every ticket is guaranteed a seat (we don't have any standing), it is however unreserved so for the best seats please arrive early.
When should I arrive?
Door to our shows are always one hour before show time. The Barrel Bar will be open before this if you want to be first in line. Please be aware that late comers may not be permitted or may be asked to wait till an interval to be seated.
Do you have disabled access?
As an old Edinburgh venue we do not have disabled access in our MB3 venue. However, do have wheelchair access to all MB1 shows. MB1 has a very tight turning circle, so some of the heavier, powered chairs might not work. Manual push chairs should all be OK. See our accessibility page for more info.
How old do you have to be enter the club?
Our shows are recommended for people aged 16 and above. Guests aged between 16-17 years old are permitted in the venue until 11pm and must be accompanied by an adult. Children under 16 are not permitted, unless otherwise noted in the show descriptions, and if so, they must be off the premises by 10pm.
What are your seats like?
Here’s the dimensions of our standard seating across all venues: 34cm deep X 43cm wide. All out seating has an average of 40cm-60cm of leg room. Some of our seats come with arm rests but other options are available. If you think our chairs are not suitable and an alternative may be needed then please let us know in advance at boxoffice@monkeybarrelcomedy.com or let a member of staff know when you arrive and we will be happy to help however we can..
