Jon Richardson headlines comedy night in aid of Ukraine

By Sarski Anderson  Wednesday Mar 9, 2022

Bristol comedy promoters Chuckle Busters have announced a stand up fundraiser in aid of the Ukrainian Red Cross.

“Like everyone else, we’ve been shocked and saddened by the recent events in Ukraine,” they say.

“While it’s tricky to think about comedy at the moment, we’re going to try and help in the only way we can – by putting on a fundraiser for the Ukrainian Red Cross.”

The stellar lineup of comedians will be headlined by Jon Richardson and Olga Koch, with Bristol favourite Mark Olver as MC, alongside a raft of acts including Eva Bindeman, Firuz Ozari, Lavana Adriana, Sam Williams and more.

The show will take place at Lost Horizon, and tickets start at £15, though the organisers are encouraging everyone to donate as much as they are able to. They are expected to sell out quickly.
