City centre leisure destination is official sponsor for Birmingham Comedy Festival.
The Arcadian is lending its support to the Birmingham Comedy Festival for the sixth consecutive year.
Recently voted Best Midlands Arts Festival in the What’s On Readers’ Awards 2017, the festival runs from Friday 6 October to Sunday 15 October 2017, and will see a host of established and fast-rising names taking to stages across the city.
The Arcadian, which is owned and managed by leading commercial property investment and management company LCP, is home to a variety of leisure and entertainment businesses, including the multi-award-winning Glee Club – one of the UK’s leading comedy venues.
A spokesperson for the festival said: “We’re delighted to be working with The Arcadian again this year. The centre’s many restaurants, cafes and bars make it an ideal destination for a night out, and it’s of course where The Glee, one of our core venues, is based.
“We’re looking forward to seeing some great shows at the club during the festival, including our official opening night launch event, the Birmingham Comedy Festival Breaking Talent Award.”
The Arcadian first signed up as official sponsor for the ten-day event in 2011.
Jo Kinsella, Centre Manager at The Arcadian, said: “We are only too pleased to lend our support once again to this excellent event that takes place on our doorstep. It always attracts a great crowd of visitors from across the country.”
This line-up for this year’s festival will be officially announced over the summer. For more information, visit: www.bhamcomfest.co.uk
