Comedy At The Fishermans Haunt puts on a free night of live stand-up at The Fishermans Haunt in Christchurch, handing the stage to up-and-coming comedians. It runs on 11 September, 13 November and 11 December 2026, in the laid-back setting of a characterful country pub not far from Bournemouth.
What to expect
A series of stand-up sets from rising acts is performed close-up in a welcoming pub atmosphere, where new jokes get their first outing. Since there's no entry fee, it's a cheap way to see comedians before they hit the big time. As the line-up shifts from one night to the next and is only confirmed nearer each date, checking the venue's official listing beforehand is worthwhile.
Planning your visit
The Fishermans Haunt is a well-established inn close to Christchurch, the historic town a short way along the coast from Bournemouth, with food and drink available before or after the show. It suits both locals and visitors looking for an easy night out. There's no charge to get in, though checking the venue's official listing for timings and booking arrangements is still worth doing.
