Map... BOOKING
LINE : 0131 558 7272.
RESERVING TICKETS :You
can reserve tickets in advance by telephone or
online form and collect them on the night of the show. You
do not have to pay in advance BUT you MUST collect reserved
tickets by 8.15pm. If they are not collected by 8.15pm they
may be re-sold. You are advised, particularly at weekends, to
get there by 8pm to get a good seat. All seats are
unreserved, and the venue is not all seated.
TICKET PRICE : From on
£2 on Monday for our beginners night 'Red Raw' to £12 for the five acts shows on
Saturday nights where you can see the cream of Scottish and
international comic talent
BLOCK BOOKINGS (Hen /
Stag / 0ffice) : Larger groups like these - and single sex
groups of 6 or more - will be asked to pay a behaviour bond of
£10 per head. This is because large groups have been known in
the past to regard the show as their show, and can ruin the
evening for the other 150+ people who have also paid to watch
great comedy, not loud drunks. The bond is payable on the night
at the door, and can be in cash or by credit card. The bond is
returned in full when the party leave.
SHOWS : Every
night......check out the
listings page
SEATING : The Stand
Edinburgh holds over 160 people, which sounds a lot, but the
club can (and often does ) sell out very quickly at the
weekends, so if you want to sit - and sit with your mates - then
get down as early as you can. For shows on Friday and Saturday,
you'd be well advised to get there for about 8.15. Don't worry,
there is a fully licensed and very reasonably priced bar.
FOOD : Hot food is
available at the Stand in the evenings.

ACCESS AND DDA : The
stand comedy club welcomes all people to enjoy live comedy
shows, and we will do all we can to make ourselves accessible.
Both clubs are located in basements of old, listed buildings and
if stairs are a problem we will be happy to assist in getting
you inside. If you let us know when you make your booking we
will do our level best to ensure that your night out is as
enjoyable as anyone's. Our staff are very helpful and friendly
and we can offer a better level of service than we give
generally by providing:
- a queue jumping early entry,
or if this is unsuitable by reserving space for your group (up
to 8.15pm)
- a named member of staff to
give you dedicated regular service of food or drinks, to your
table or at the bar
- free entry for a
helper/signer
We don’t claim to know exactly
what everyone needs so please let us know. We welcome
comments and feedback on ways in which our service could be improved to
allow anyone the opportunity to enjoy what the stand has to
offer. Many already have over the years and you could too.
