Ed Gamble, Sam Ryder and Sue Perkins are among a long list of famous names to be added to the Just for Laughs first-ever festival, and it’s shaping to be quite the raucous event.

The four-day event is taking place in London’s O2 arena across March 2-5 this year and boasts a stellar line-up full of the nation’s funniest faces including Graham Norton and Katherine Ryan

Former Bake Off host Sue will host Comic Relief’s Proud Every Day event in support of the LGBTQ+ community. 

The exclusive panel show will be fronted by the legendary comedian and will feature the voices of much-loved LGBTQ+ comics who are making waves on the national circuit. 

Comedian and Mock the Week regular Ed, who is also known his mega-hit podcast Off Menu with James Acaster, will be taking the stage during the Katherine Ryan and Friends fixture.

And Eurovision star and singer Sam will be joining TV and radio host Graham on The O2 arena’s illustrious stage.

Alongside Sam, funnyman Joe Lycett, American drag queen, comedian, actor, costume designer and winner of the sixth series of RuPaul’s Drag Race, Bianca Del Rio, star of last year’s Strictly Come Dancing Jayde Adams and winner of the fourth series of Drag Race UK Danny Beard will all thrill audience members one line at a time.
