Oxford Comedy Festival
The Oxford Festival Fringe Preview Comedy Festival (Oxford Comedy Festival for short) is a month-long comedy festival happening throughout July created and curated by QED Comedy Lab. We bring the best comedians headed to Edinburgh and other large festivals to the Oxford community. We have a particular interest in amplifying traditionally underrepresented voices, such as women, global majority, and LGBTQ+ comedians, as well as giving a stage to more experimental shows. Our ultimate goal is to bring the talent we love to our home town to share with as many people as possible - and this year we have over 40 amazing shows planned at three different venues around town, kids comedy shows at the Pegasus Theatre, and a comedy film series at the Ultimate Picture Palace. We hope that you will join us!
