Mike Jones, the Managing Director of The Stand, is leaving his post. The comedy club chain, which has branches in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Newcastle, issued the following statement:
"After 7 years in post, Mike Jones is standing down as Managing Director of The Stand Comedy Club with effect from 16 October 2026. We are grateful for his time in this role and for the contribution he has made to the company.
The Stand has announced its first Edinburgh Fringe 2024 shows. Tickets for all shows below are on sale now here.

Older. Wiser. Smarter. Meaner. Wicked one-liners. Devilishly sarcastic. Outrageous observations. Appearances: HIGNFY, House Of Games, Mock The Week, Michael McIntyre Show, Breaking The News. 'Pure comedy gold' (Metro).
With growing noise about the extortionate costs of the Edinburgh Fringe for artists, The Stand - Edinburgh’s best full-time, year-round comedy club – is listening. Founded on the basis of a fair deal for artists and committed to that promise ever since, The Stand’s first announcement of Edinburgh Fringe shows in 2023 comes with the news that their deal has been revised to drop venue hire costs and not increase ticket prices.
Scottish comedy club promoter Alan Anderson of Rotunda Comedy Club, The Comedy Cabaret and Scottish Comedy Awards has purchased the iconic Cowboy With Gun backdrop from rival club The Stand.
The cowboy is going nowhere, but after a quarter-century, he’s earned the right to lower his arms.
A piece of comedy history, it’s only right that the famous stage backdrop gets its own show: An unprecedented Stand auction slap-bang in the middle of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
