Bonfire Night Comedy Show in London
Fireworks on stage — live stand-up comedy on Guy Fawkes Night
Book TicketsNovember 5th in London means standing in a muddy field, craning your neck at the sky, and freezing your hands around a lukewarm cup of mulled wine. Or — hear us out — you could swap the sparklers for some actual sparks and spend Bonfire Night watching live stand-up comedy in a warm, atmospheric venue in central London. JK Comedy Club is the alternative Guy Fawkes night you didn’t know you needed.
Our Bonfire Night comedy shows bring together some of the funniest performers on the London comedy circuit, delivering explosive sets that go off better than any Catherine wheel. Whether you’re dodging the fireworks entirely or looking for something to do before heading to a display, a comedy show is the perfect way to make the most of November 5th. Tickets start from just £7 — less than a toffee apple and a programme at your local bonfire.
With venues in Soho, Covent Garden, and Leicester Square, you’re in the heart of the action. Catch the show, then step outside for a stroll through the West End — you might even catch some fireworks from the street without the queue or the cold.

- Bigger bangs: Our comedians deliver punchlines that hit harder than any firework display
- The alternative night out: Everyone else is at the same bonfire — be the interesting one with a different story to tell
- Central London convenience: No trekking to a park on the outskirts — our venues are minutes from major tube stations
