Monday’s coming up, which means it’s time for Tennent’s Laughter Lounge, a totally free weekly night of stand-up comedy featuring pro headline acts, special mystery guests and some of the best up-and-coming talent Scotland has to offer, hosted by our resident compere Paddy Linton. We’ve had Mark Nelson, Susie McCabe, Ray Bradshaw, Rosco McClelland and Marc Jennings to name but a few headline or stop by to run out new material, so you can be sure it’s going to be a brilliant night. And with drink deals for as low as £3.50 a pint, it’s the best value night out too!
Your host for the evening is Tennent’s Laughter Lounge founder and resident compere Paddy Linton. His impressive stand-up skills have fast become highly in demand at some of the best comedy shows in the country. In March 2025 he was chosen to open for Darren Connell at Glasgow’s legendary King’s Theatre. He’s also been support act of choice for Mark Black and Gary Faulds.
"He went up and smashed it... it was genuinely exciting watching him from the back and it made me remember why I love this." - Darren Connell
“Instantly likeable and effortlessly funny.” – Comedy Dundee
“Got people on side immediately” – The Stand
