The Main Auditorium is the heart of Komedia Bath. Over the years, its stage has played host to everyone from Russell Howard, Joe Lycett and Katherine Ryan to The Buzzcocks, Martha Reeves & The Vandellas and Newton Faulkner, as well as many of Bath’s own up-and-coming comedic and musical talents.
Unlike many mid-scale venues, Komedia Bath is visually and acoustically stunning, thanks to its original Edwardian vaulted ceiling, so it makes for a great location if you’re planning on recording/filming your event.
For standing gigs or club nights, the Main Auditorium holds up to 615 people.
For events with rowed seating, the Main Auditorium holds up to 316 people.
For events with Cabaret style seating (tables and chairs), the Main Auditorium holds up to 200 people.
A 165-seater Balcony is also available as required, but cannot be used during club nights for safety reasons.
A small backstage facility is available and we can provide further dressing rooms and a chill space at our nearby flat on request.
Hire costs start at £850 for a standard evening event, and you’ll have a Technician, Duty Manager and members of Box Office and Bar staff on hand to help make sure everything runs smoothly. Depending on your needs, we can provide additional staff and extra equipment, but please bear in mind that this will incur additional costs.
