ED Byrne, Bill Bailey, Russell Kane and Sara Pascoe - these are only a few of the comedians set to headline the Larmer Tree Festival in July.
Seann Walsh, Kerry Godliman, James Acaster, David Trent, Alex Edelman, Gareth Richards and Mark Simmons will also join the star-studded line-up to mark the event's 25th anniversary.
The 2015 late-night comedy programme will kick off on Thursday, July 16
with Irish comic Ed Byrne. On Sunday, Larmer Tree will welcome back multi-award winning comedian,
presenter, actor and scriptwriter Russell Kane. A familiar face from
Live at the Apollo, Live at the Electric and Unzipped, Kane is returning
to the festival for the third time by popular demand.
The stellar 2015 comedy bill also includes sparky Sydney-born Yve Blake who will
perform her high-energy act with comic songs inspired by story submissions from Twitter, including one
specially written for Larmer Tree’s 25th year based on audience anecdotes.
Other highlights are Festival Director Julia Safe’s discoveries from the 2014 Edinburgh Fringe: Alex Edelman, Rhys James and rising star Fin Taylor, now fresh from supporting Russell Howard.
The festival near Salisbury will run from July 14 to 19.
