Amsterdam Comedy Festival

The fourth edition of the successful Amsterdam Comedy Festival goes international, focusing entirely on English-language stand-up comedy from the UK, the USA, Australia and New-Zealand.

Zap back and forth

The festival is a relaxed affair, where the audience can 'zap' back and forth between short, 30-minute shows on three different stages - a great chance to check out the wide range of international comedians.

The line-up

So far, the line-up includes Australian Brendon Burns, Edinburgh Fringe winner of 2007; Irishman David O' Doherty, Edinburgh Fringe winner of 2008; American Dave Fulton, fast and furious regular at Amsterdam's Toomler; Wil Hodgson, pink-haired one-liner machine from the UK; and Richard Herring, also from the UK and loved as well as hated for his show 'Hitler Moustache'.
