The nights are getting darker earlier, the weather is changing (for the most part) and the inevitable trudge to the Christmas season is nearly upon us.
But thankfully, for those of you who have some spare time before the Christmas rush, there’s a number of comedy tours set to take place in Scotland before the end of the year, from personalities many are familiar with through their TV appearances to others who have cut their teeth on the Edinburgh Fringe circuit.
We’ve picked 15 shows that still have tickets available through Ticketmaster, and are taking place later in the year to allow you to prepare for your evening of comedy.
That means despite Sarah Millican coming to the area from today, she’s not made the list - though if you want a last minute ticket to see her perform, you’d better hurry fast!
