The line up for this year’s Edinburgh Comedy Allstars at Underbelly has been announced, with names including Mark Watson and Larry Dean on the billing.
The popular show, described as “a one-stop shop for your comedy fix right in the beating heart of the festival”, involves five comedians taking to the stage in an hour-long show. The run has seen every performance sold out since 2017.
Here, The Scotsman takes a look at ten of the best comedians due to appear at this year’s event, which takes place at Underbelly George Square on Friday and Saturday nights from August 1 to 23 at 11.15pm.
