The hotly anticipated West Coast Comedy Festival returns for its second year on Saturday 11th July 2026, and we've just announced that acclaimed stand-up comic Kiri Pritchard-McLean has been added to the festival’s lineup.
After last year’s successful first outing for the festival, 2026 promises a day of non-stop laughter, featuring five top-tier comedians, delicious food and drink offerings, live music, and the warm West Cumbrian hospitality Rosehill is known for.
Kiri Pritchard-McLean has built a formidable reputation across the UK comedy circuit with her sharp wit, fearless stage presence, and unforgettable television appearances. Audiences will have the exclusive opportunity to hear brand-new material from Kiri as she fine-tunes her latest stand-up show ahead of its run at the Edinburgh Fringe.

“We couldn’t be more excited to welcome Kiri Pritchard-McLean as our first confirmed act. Her bold, intelligent comedy sets the tone for what’s shaping up to be an incredible day of laughter and celebration. Tickets are already selling fast; comedy fans definitely won’t want to miss this one.”
