Edinburgh: Stand Up Comedy Show
Grassmarket, Edinburgh
Sit back and enjoy an entertaining night of comedy mayhem to tickle the fancy of every comedy fan. See multiple comedians perform live and have a laugh with your friends and family.
Comedy Attic at the Beehive Inn, Edinburgh
The Comedy Attic is a stand-up comedy club located above the Beehive Inn on Grassmarket, suitable for adults seeking an authentic Edinburgh comedy experience.
Description
Climb the stairs of the Beehive Inn and pass the original Death Cell Door from Calton Jail before reaching a small, brick-walled attic room hosting the comedy show. The Comedy Attic offers an intimate setting with about 60 seats, where the audience is close enough to the stage for direct interaction with comedians.
The show starts at 8:15 PM, with doors opening at 8:00 PM, and runs for approximately 90 minutes to two hours including a short interval. Four to six comedians perform tight sets of ten to twenty minutes each, featuring acts from the UK circuit, including familiar names and emerging talent.
The event is hosted by Rick Molland, a seasoned UK compère who maintains the show’s tone and handles the flow of the evening.
Highlights
- Enjoy live stand-up comedy in a historic Edinburgh pub setting
- Comedic hosting by Rick Molland
- Suitable for groups including stag dos, hen parties, birthdays, and local audiences

Who It's For
