“With around 20 shows over the course of three days, we can’t wait to pack out Fairfield Social Club with comedy fans for a heck of a lovely time and speaking personally, my favourite weekend of the year,” said John Stansfield, producer of the A Lovely Weekend comedy festival.

Scheduled to take place from May 29 to May 31, 2026, the festival will showcase a diverse lineup of performances, including a headline act by comedian Harriet Kemsley. The event is expected to draw significant crowds, as it features approximately 20 shows across the three-day span.

The festival will be held at the Fairfield Social Club in Manchester, a venue known for hosting vibrant events and performances. Tickets for the festival are currently on sale, allowing fans to secure their spots for what promises to be an exciting weekend of comedy.

Harriet Kemsley, who gained recognition as a contestant in the first series of the popular show Last One Laughing, is anticipated to be a major draw for attendees. Last One Laughing, hosted by Jimmy Carr, has garnered attention for its unique format and engaging performances.

The new series of Last One Laughing premiered on Prime Video in 2026, continuing the show’s legacy of entertaining audiences with comedic talent. Kemsley’s participation in the festival highlights her growing prominence in the comedy scene.

Bob Mortimer, the champion of the first series of Last One Laughing, and Diane Morgan, who performed a rendition of Dylan Thomas’ poem on the show, are among the notable figures associated with the series, further elevating the festival’s profile.

As the festival approaches, excitement builds among fans and participants alike, with many looking forward to a weekend filled with laughter and entertainment. The combination of Kemsley’s performance and the festival’s lineup is expected to create a memorable experience for all attendees.

Details remain unconfirmed regarding additional performers and specific showtimes, but the anticipation for A Lovely Weekend continues to grow as the event date nears.
