TODAY IN MB2:

Dan Tiernan: Quartz and All

10:25PM

MB1

Dan Tiernan is back at it again: and this time he’s got magic rocks in his pocket. With a hat trick of sold-out Edinburgh shows, Dan's a double Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee, who has received countless five-star reviews. No wonder the Guardian has named him 'one of comedy’s most distinctive new voices'.

Finlay Christie: Champagne Casanova

10:40PM

MB4

Finlay misguidedly believes that his muggers fancied him, that being a f*ckboy is cool and that Kim Jong Un would love him. Funny, self-aware and internet-brained, this is an hour about the myths constructed by incels, billionaires and even human people, that mean we don’t have to admit we’re ordinary, rejected or wrong. There’s also a strong section on air fryers.

Paul Hilleard: Grogg

10:40PM

The Studio

BBC New Comedian of the Year 2024, Channel 4's Sean Lock Award finalist 2025 and winner of Chortle Hotshots 2026 debuts this Fringe! Hailing from Pontypridd in the South Welsh Valleys, Paul shares experiences of growing up in a deprived area. Expect dry oddball observations from the Valleys and beyond! Content includes; market towns, God, gates, the class system, hot food, relationships, yoga, landlords, Epstein.

The Alternative Comedy Memorial Society (ACMS)

11:55PM

MB1

Glorious, inventive, late-night knees-up! A resplendent ceremony in an air-conditioned room! More than two magnificent hours of ridiculous displays of comedic enterprise, dancing and frolicking. All guided by Mister Thom Tuck - 'fruity, befuddled and increasingly melancholy' (Guardian) - before onward carriages at your own discretion. All thirteen performances will be precisely unique. Permitted heckles! Delightful atmosphere!

This prophecy will be my last. Come on a fool's errand to the tunnel at the end of the light for absurd antics and apocalyptic visions from the BAFTA-winning 'standard-bearer of UK Clown' (Guardian).

Sam Eley is Basil Crumbwick: Soul Sewage

David Correos: Noise Zealand

11:30PM

O'Neill's (The Tron)

David here! This is the perfect late-night event for you! End your Edinburgh day with me!! Your brain’s gonna melt out of your ears. If you’re still reading this get a ticket cause these words are only the beginning of the adventure!! I’ve made a comedy rave that blends my favourite tracks to dance to with chaos that I’ve been honing in Aus and NZ over the past two years.
