“With around 20 shows over the course of three days, we can’t wait to pack out Fairfield Social Club with comedy fans for a heck of a lovely time and speaking personally, my favourite weekend of the year,” said John Stansfield, producer of the A Lovely Weekend festival.
Set to take place from May 29 to May 31, 2026, the festival will feature a lineup that includes the talented Harriet Kemsley, who gained recognition as a contestant in the first series of Last One Laughing, hosted by Jimmy Carr.
The A Lovely Weekend festival promises a vibrant atmosphere with approximately 20 shows scheduled over its three-day run, making it a significant event for comedy enthusiasts in Manchester.
Kemsley’s participation in the festival comes on the heels of her recent appearance in the new series of Last One Laughing, which premiered on Prime Video in 2026. This adaptation of the Japanese series Documental has captivated audiences, with Bob Mortimer emerging as the champion of the first series.
As the festival approaches, excitement is building among fans eager to see Kemsley and other comedians perform live. Tickets for the event are currently on sale, allowing fans to secure their spots for what promises to be an unforgettable weekend.
In addition to Kemsley, the festival will showcase a variety of comedic talents, ensuring that there is something for everyone. The Fairfield Social Club will serve as the perfect venue for this celebration of humor and entertainment.
With the festival just around the corner, organizers are optimistic about the turnout and the overall experience for attendees. The combination of Kemsley’s comedic style and the festival’s lively environment is expected to create a memorable occasion.
