The UK's fastest-growing outdoor stand-up comedy festival has revealed an all-star line-up, including Ed Byrne, Chris McCausland, Russell Kane, and Joanne McNally, for its fourth year at Warwick Castle in 2026.

Comedy at the Castle will transform the medieval castle grounds with household names and emerging talent from the world of comedy plus an exclusive food and drink offering on Friday 22, Saturday 23, and Sunday 24 May next year.

Combining evenings of live performances from some of the funniest names in British and Irish comedy with award-winning street food traders; cocktail, craft ale and fizz bars, and top-class live production, Comedy at the Castle has won over legions of laughter aficionados in just a short time.

Organised by established promoters Closeup Comedy and street food experts Digbeth Dining Club, the three-day independently-run festival will see 30 comedians specialising in one-liners, observational, satirical, and surreal comedy take to stages across three stunning UK sites.

Harry Jenkins, Comedy at the Castle director, said: "We are totally overjoyed to finally release our biggest and best line-up yet, which draws on the success of previous years as well as feedback from audience members.

"Coming to Warwick for the fourth year running in 2026 with a super line-up and festival site is going to be wonderful, especially as the region is home for Closeup Comedy.

"The Comedy at the Castle team is really looking forward to working with friends and partners in the Midlands to bring more comedy, street food and great nights out to fans old and new next year."

Tickets for Comedy at the Castle 2026, at Warwick Castle (22-24 May) are on sale now via comedyatthecastle.co.uk
