Creatures Comedy Club is the only dedicated comedy club in Manchester to run live shows seven nights a week. Tucked beneath Wilson’s Social in the heart of the Northern Quarter, this lively basement venue hosts more than 15 gigs a week, ranging from mixed bills with international headliners to new act nights that spotlight fresh talent from the North West and beyond.

Run by a small, passionate team, Creatures champions diversity, inclusion and top-tier laughs in a relaxed, welcoming setting. Whether you’re a die-hard comedy fan or just after a spontaneous night out, there’s something here for everyone.

Expect great drinks, a full bar, and the occasional late-night karaoke session once the final mic drops.
