Go (comedy) star-gazing

You’ll be smiling at more than just the sunset

Join us for our first-ever comedy fest at sea.

On this five-night journey through Portsmouth, Amsterdam and Zeebrugge, you’ll be exploring the Low Countries by day, and laughing it up to some of the UK’s funniest comedians by night. On this uniquely curated Voyage, we’ve booked some of the brightest stars from TV, touring, and Edinburgh Fringe, as well as one-of-a-kind immersive experiences like “The Dark Room” and “International Improv All Stars” to keep you laughing through the Low Countries on an epic adventure at sea.

Headliner: Russell Howard

Russell Howard is one of the UK’s most successful comedians. You may know him for his TV appearances on “The Russel Howard Hour,” “Russell Howard’s Good News” and “Russel Howard & Mum: Globetrotters” to name a few. Russell’s 2019 tour ‘Respite’ sold 300,000+ tickets across 24 countries and 5 continents.

Ria Lina

Known for her appearances on BBC’s Live At The Apollo, Have I Got News For You, The Now Show and Mock The Week, Lina was named one of The Evening Standard’s ‘Hottest Comedians You Should Be Watching Now.’ With a PHD in virology, Lina’s standup is dripping with intelligence.

Simon Brodkin

Known for his “electrifying crowd work,” Simon Brodkin’s current 110-date international ‘Screwed Up’ tour was just extended for a third time. Simon has made headlines across the globe for his pranks on Britain’s Got Talent, then UK Prime Minister Theresa May, Manchester City F.C., and Volkswagen.

Flo & Joan

You may have seen this award winning musical comedy sister act on Live at the Apollo, the Royal Variety Performance, and more. Their viral songs mine personal nightmares to hilarious ends, earning them millions of views online, an international tour, and their own comedy special on Amazon Prime.

Emmanuel Sonubi

A favorite of the UK live comedy scene, you may have caught him on Live at the Apollo, Comedy Central’s Stand-Up UK, or ITV2’s Stand-Up and Sketch Show. All that talent earned him an Edinburgh Comedy Award nomination for Best Newcomer, and sold out tours year after year.

Andre Vincent

Andre Vincent is known for a unique brand of joke-slinging that has taken him to the highest heights of comedy and beyond – a Saturday night show on Channel 4, three sell-out runs at Edinburgh fringe, and he even made an appearance as himself on the children's drama 'Byker Grove.’

Thanyia Moore

There’s a reason Thanyia Moore was named the 2018 winner of the national Funny Women Award. Her debut comedy show Just Being Funny ran to critical acclaim and sold out crowds at Edinburgh Fringe. Plus you may recognize her from appearances on Mock the Week, Drunk History, and many more.

Harry Stachini

One of the most exciting young comedians today, Stachini is known for his regular appearances at the UK’s hottest comedy clubs. Known for his easy-going style, Stachini has toured Europe and Asia, and his podcast The Staff Room Podcast, was nominated for Best Comedy at the British Podcast Awards.
