What a Night at Our Bournemouth Comedy Club Is Like
Jaggers is one of Bournemouth’s best-known comedy clubs, and every Saturday it takes over the Live Lounge at Canvas. Each week there’s a different bill of touring comedians, so no two nights are the same and it’s always worth coming back.
It’s a seated show, so you can settle in at your table and order drinks from the bar without missing a punchline. The Live Lounge has a proper stage and a full sound and lighting setup, which makes for a great atmosphere whether you’re at the front or further back.
Once the comedy finishes, the room turns over for the club night. That means you can go from laughing to dancing without leaving the building.
Why a Comedy Club Is a Great Night Out
A comedy club works for almost any occasion:
Date nights. Laughing together takes the pressure off, and there’s plenty to talk about afterwards.
Birthdays. Book a group of tickets, enjoy the show, then stay on for the club night.
Work socials. It’s an easy crowd-pleaser that doesn’t need much planning.
Friends visiting Bournemouth. Show them a good night out beyond the beach.
Hen and stag dos. Comedy followed by a club night gives your group a full evening in one place. See our guide to hen and stag venues in Bournemouth for more ideas.
Tips for Your Comedy Night
- Book ahead. Buy your tickets online before the night so you don’t miss out.
- Arrive early. Latecomers can’t be seated once the show has started, so get there for 7:30pm and grab a drink before it begins.
- Bring photo ID. The show is for over 18s only.
- Eat beforehand. There are plenty of places to eat around Poole Hill and the town centre.
- Front row, fair warning. If you sit right at the front, there’s a chance the comedians will chat to you. Half the fun is hoping it’s your mate instead.
- Phones away. Most comedians would rather their sets weren’t filmed, so keep your phone in your pocket and enjoy the show.
Make It a Full Night Out in Bournemouth
Canvas is at 45 Poole Hill, about five minutes from Bournemouth Square, so it’s easy to fit into a bigger night out.
Before the show: Start the evening with food nearby or a group activity. A cocktail making class in Bournemouth is a fun warm-up, especially for birthdays and hen dos.
After the show: Stay where you are. The Live Lounge turns into a club night once the comedy is over.
On a Friday instead? Feel Free Fridays run on selected Fridays through the season, with doors at 8pm and packages from £20. Check our What’s On page for upcoming dates, club nights and live music.
