Booking A Comedian In the North East

Everything You Need To Know

Comedians in the North East cost from £327 to £27227. The average price in 2025 was £1084. Prices vary depending on experience, demand, size of act, travel costs and the specs of the equipment provided. Artists travelling into the North East from further away will usually charge more than a local act due to travel time and fuel costs.

We will always do our best to help you find an artist within your budget, so please give us a call if you can't find what you're looking for.

Alive Network represents Comedians throughout the North East, with acts available for events in County Durham, Durham, Newcastle upon Tyne, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear.

On the rare occasion that we don't have an artist based within your area, we will always have artists in the neighbouring regions willing to travel.

To see our most local artists, enter a search using your event date and location, then use the 'nearest me' sort option.

Aside from representing some of the best Comedians in the UK, one of the main reasons to hire a Comedian with Alive Network is security.

Reviews From Events In the North East

A small selection of featured reviews from customers who booked our Comedians for events taking place within the North East.

The Juggling Show Comedian Review Other Event Type

5 stars - The Juggling Show are Highly Recommended

“A bundle of positive energy, proves himself a devilish juggler, who carries his talent lightly!”

Chortle booked The Juggling Show for their event

5 stars - The Comedy Illusionists are Highly Recommended

“Two chatty young magicians and an angry female prancer/stooge character appear next and wake up the tired late night audience. The three-handed company belongs to an act called The Comedy Illusionists. This is refreshing Penn and Teller style comedy magic and the quirky and off the wall approach...”

The S booked The Comedy Illusionists for their event
