Open Mic Comedy – Show Up, Sign Up, Stand Up!

​​Looking for a stand-up comedy night you don’t have to book weeks in advance? Free For All is exactly that — a fast, no-nonsense open mic where every comic can grab five minutes on stage just by showing up.

AUDIENCES:

The show is free to attend and un-ticketed - just turn up and watch the chaos unfold. You'll see an exciting combination of new, developing, and established acts - making it an unmissable experience for comedy fans in Edinburgh. Plus every show is hosted by two fantastic, experienced acts - so you're always in safe hands. 

There are no breaks, just back-to-back stand-up all night long. You can come and go as you please and our bar is open throughout the night - offering a wide selection of refreshments (or a quick breather).

ACTS:

Here’s how it works: Register in person between 7PM and 8PM, and if your name is called, you’ve got 5 minutes — no questions asked. But if you’re not in the room? Tough luck, we’re moving on!

Think of it like a gong show, but instead of getting yanked off stage, you'll hear the dulcet tones of The Fratellis when you've overrun.
