HELLO & WELCOME TO OUR OCTOBERDECEMBER 2024 BROCHURE!
Firstly, we’d like to say a big thank you to Violet Von Riot for creating this season’s wonderful cover artwork!
Violet is an award-winning collage artist, based in Frome, and she created this stunningly detailed wintry Komedia scene using recycled posters, flyers, tickets and magazine clippings from the last 15 years of the venue! You’ll be able to find old favourites as well as up-and-coming events included in the piece.
You can find more of Violet’s work - and even commission a custom pet portrait collage - at www.violetvonriot.com or by following her art page on Instagram, @violetvonriot.
Throughout the autumn and all the way to Christmas, we’ve got plenty of top touring comedy from the likes of Kane Brown (p.14), Tatty Macleod (p.20) and Count Arthur Strong (p.18 + 23) as well as the return of our ever-popular and fantastically festive Krater Comedy Club Christmas Specials (p.22).
For live music lovers, autumn gig highlights include Jah Wobble (p.6), Cardinal Black + Rosie Frater-Taylor (p.15) and Elvana: Elvis fronted Nirvana (p.26) and we’re putting on another of our FREE Community Music Festivals in October, thanks to funding support from Arts Council England and Bath Spa University.
There are also plenty of other diverse events to explore - from film screenings to club nights, boozy bingo and just about everything in-between - so dive in & we hope to see you soon!

ACCESSIBILITY
AT KOMEDIA
BATH, WE ARE COMMITTED TO BEING ACCESSIBLE TO ALL
Komedia is a multi-use venue and our shows have different set-ups - from theatre-style rows, to cabaret tables and full on rock gigs - but we have taken steps to make all of them accessible.
Wheelchair users are welcome at all our events and we offer free tickets for Personal Assistants to accompany customers who would otherwise be unable to attend the event. We also have a raised viewing area with great sight lines of the stage and easy access to the bar and loos that we can reserve by request at all of our standing shows. You’ll just need to give us a ring, drop us an email or pop into the Venue Box Office to request seating at the viewing area or a Personal Assistant Ticket.
An increasing number of our most popular shows feature British Sign Language interpretation. Just look out for the symbol opposite while browsing this brochure, or visit www.komediabath.co.uk and search for ‘BSL shows’ to see what we have coming up.
At these shows, we have specific seats available that have an uninterrupted view of our BSL interpreter. Simply request these in the ‘Customer Comment’ box when making your booking online, or speak with a member of our Box Office team.
If you have already booked tickets for a show and have an access query, it is as easy as replying to your ticket email with any questions and requirements. We will get back to you within 2 working days and are always happy to adjust tickets & seats as required.
Unfortunately, we do not have an audio induction loop at the venue yet, but we aim to install one soon.
If you are unsure how to get to the venue, where to park, how it works at the Box Office, bar and in the queue, if strobe lighting will be used, if you can bring medication, your assistance dog or if your wheelchair will fit through the Auditorium doors (we promise, it will!) – check our ‘Accessibility’ page on the website using the QR code on the left.
Alternatively, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us via phone on 01225 489 070, via email at info@komediabath.co.uk or in person at our venue Box Office.
