The names it’s brought to Harrogate include Peter Kay, John Bishop, Russell Howard, Lee Mack, Ross Noble, Micky Flanigan, Sarah Millican, Alan Carr, Jon Richardson and Katherine Ryan.

From the beginning the popular night has had the ethos of not having open spots or booking amateur acts.

It believes that, by only booking the best professional comedians in the country, it maintains its standard.
