Stand-Up Europe aims to professionalise the blossoming international comedy circuit around Europe, to establish a cross-border community of performers and organisers and to further the exchange of talent within Europe.
We do so by acting as a connecting hub, by coordinating tourdates around Europe and by promoting the English-speaking comedy circuit.
Who?
