Artista Art Association Presents: The Secret Comedy Club

About Us

We run comedy nights at this venue all year round but we have something special planned for the Fringe. 100+ comedians over 4 weeks at Artista voted the Audience Choice Award Best Brighton Fringe Venue 2021. We will run 7 days per week from 1:30pm to 11:30pm on weekends and from 6pm to 11:30pm on weekdays. Please check listings as it is the only way to know who will be on. It’s a good idea to know what you are coming to watch as we book a large variety of acts.

★★★★★ rating on Design My Night & Trip Advisor based on 200+ user reviews

“In my top five venues in Britain. The combination of intimacy and good energy means I can get 100% into my comfort zone. Being in that very rare mind-state means one can take improv to another level.” Adam Bloom

“Putting a cool Brighton audience into a super fun little space can only end in a magical night. The best small venue in the country.” Phil Nichol
