Can I buy food & drink during the show?

 

Can I bring my small children to the show?

 

Can I bring my stag night to your venue?

• No, the 99 Club is not a suitable environment for Stag nights or other rowdy groups.  If you contact us we will be happy to recommend comedy venues run by other organisations which cater for those kinds of night.

 

What kind of comedy is it?

• We aim to present smart, exciting and above all, hilarious alternative stand up comedy. Whilst few of the comics you will see are household names yet, many are award winners and most have the odd TV and radio credit to their name.

 

Am I supposed to heckle during the show?

• No. One of the joys of stand up comedy is that it is a live experience and a touch of friendly banter can be fun, but repeatedly shouting out sours the atmosphere and prevents people from hearing the jokes they've paid to hear. We also require group bookings (0ver 10) to sign a behaviour bond and leave a £40 deposit, which we will return at the end of the show provided the group has not caused an unreasonable disturbance.

 

Will someone take the piss out of me if I'm sat near the front?

• No. Again, a touch of friendly banter can be fun, but we don't book the kind of acts who just take the piss out of people who've paid good money to have a great night out.  All the acts at our clubs have reams of hilarious material at their disposal - they don't need to rely on mocking someone's haircut or choice of clothes to get laughs!

 

What does 'unreserved' seating mean?

• When you book a seated ticket at any of  The 99 Club venues you are guaranteed a seat (provided you are there to collect it by the start of the show!) It is called 'unreserved seating' as you decide in the venue where you want to sit when you get there (as opposed to picking out a specific seat in advance).

 

We have booked as a group, will we get to sit together?

• We aim to ensure groups get to sit together, in this case we do allocate seating when possible. However we do ask you to arrive 25 minutes prior to the show to claim these seats.

 

Will the show finish in time for me to get my train home?

• All our venues are in locations convenient for the Underground. Every show finishes before 11pm, with the exception of our late show in Oxford Circus which ends at 11.15pm. For more information on show finish times please refer to the individual venue pages.

 

What are public transport links like?

• All our venues are near major public transport hubs.  All are less than five minutes walk from the nearest Underground station and well served by multiple bus routes.  Our Islington and Leicester Square venues are both walking distance from major train stations.  See individual venue pages for more info.

 

Where is the nearest parking space?

• A list of central London car parks be found through this link.  The National Car Park St Martin's Lane is just a few minutes walk to our Leicester Square venues.  For Islington there is parking available in the N1 centre car park just a few minutes walk to the venue, or on nearby residential streets.  However, we strongly recommend using public transport over driving in London.  All our venues are located nearby major transport hubs.

 

I didn't come to the show yesterday as I had to work late - can I get a refund on my tickets?

• Unfortunately we do not refund or exchange tickets once purchased.  There are no exceptions to this rule.

 

What is the Mailing List?

• We collect email addresses at every gig for our mailing list, and then send out a weekly round up of our gigs and special offers. If you are on the mailing list you also have the chance of winning free tickets to our shows every week. Email us to be added to the list. We will never pass your details on to third parties.

 

How can I get comedy at my venue / special event?

• The 99 Club offers a gig booking and organisation service. If you would like to book regular comedy for your venue or for a one-off special event, email us with your details and requirements and we will get back to you with some suggested packages and check out our dedicated website www.bookcomedy.com

 

Can I get a gig at the 99 Club?

• All of our acts are carefully selected, so we do not offer open spots to acts we haven't seen. If you are wanting a gig, email us your gig list and a brief CV and we will try to get to see you soon.

 

Why is The 99 Club different?

• We believe comedy clubs should be friendly and fun and that performers should be exciting, innovative and above all hilariously funny. This differentiates us fairly dramatically from the other major comedy clubs which focus their marketing and their comedians mainly on the lucrative stag and hen market.
