It’s finally happening! Leith Comedy Festival was supposed to launch in October 2020, and after a tumultuous few years, it is at last taking place this October, three years later than planned.

Leith Comedy Festival exists to inspire and create opportunities for the people of Leith by joining forces with local companies and charities to unleash the power of laughter for good.
