The longest-running smoke-free comedy club outside of the capital.
Oxford’s home of independent comedy.
First Sunday of every month.

There’s always stuff going on at Tim Bearder’s BBC Oxford comedy site, so look there for info about previous shows and clips of the acts in action. The Bullingdon Comedy Club is Smoke-free, though there is provision for smokers in the front bar.

Oxford Mail, Friday 2nd May 2008
'for some intelligent and highly honed wit, head to the Bullingdon's Kill for a Seat Comedy Club. The compere is Silky, the glue that holds the Oxford comedy scene together.'
Erica Bingley
Oxford Times, Friday 9th May 2008
'Good value... a very diverse audience.. . Both Dara O'Briain and Daniel Kitson were in Oxford on the same evening, but I went to the right venue. Kill for a Seat Comedy at the Bullingdon'
