Sara Pascoe and Catherine Cohen coming to West London for new comedy festival
A new comedy festival is coming to West London this summer. The Bush Comedy Festival, run by live production company Berk's Nest, will take place from Wednesday, July 17 to Saturday, July 20.
Tickets are available now - you can get them here. The event promises four days of unmissable live comedy, including brand new material in work-in-progress shows from some of the most established comics on the UK scene, live podcasts, and an all-star opening gala show, with more to be announced.
Owen Donovan, Managing Director of Berk's Nest, said: "I'm thrilled to be bringing some of the most exciting comedy shows of the year to some of my favourite venues in London. With the backing of Hammersmith & Fulham Council, this festival will be a real staple in the summer calendar for West London.
