CHRISTMAS COMEDY SPECIALS

BRILLIANT COMEDY

Oxford Christmas Comedy shows are perfect for groups large and small. Every show has a superb atmosphere with four top stand-up comedians and a late cocktail bar to keep celebrations going into the night.

Sadly we can’t serve food but there are some fantastic restaurants on Cowley Road. Before and after the show you will have chance to enjoy some music and drinks in The Bullingdon’s cocktail bar where you can stay late in to the night.

Please be aware seating is unreserved.

For over 20 years we have been entertaining groups large and small in our award winning comedy venues, so this year book The Glee Club for a Christmas party to remember.

Comedy Tour shows are where you can see current comedy performers doing their extended solo shows, usually as part of a national tour of venues. With many of those comedians going on to sell out arenas all over the country, you can see them here first!

Previous hugely successful comedians that have graced the Glee Club Oxford stage on tour include Jack Whitehall, Richard Herring, Shappi Khorsandi, Milton Jones, Angelos Epithemiou, and many many more.

Making a Booking

We always recommend booking in advance, as many of our shows sell out nearer to the day. You can do this online, or by calling our Box Office (opening hours can be found here).

We always recommend booking in advance. You can book online or over the phone by making full payment using a credit/debit card.

For some shows, as long as they are not sold out in advance, we may still have a limited number of spaces available on the door. These are first come, first served. Please note, tickets will be more expensive on the door.

We are a ticketless venue, it's less hassle for you, and saves a few trees. Once you have booked you will receive an email confirmation of your booking. This is for your own records, there's no need to print it, but do read it through and make a note of the booking reference number (beginning with GL). Upon arriving at the club, we just need the name you booked under, this will gain you entry. If you are the organiser of the party, please ensure all members of the group have the booking reference number and party name to give at the door.

You can login to the MyGlee section of the website at any time, to take view or amend any current bookings you have with us.

You can also visit MyGlee to resend your booking confirmation if you can't find it.

Glee is a great night out, whether you are a solo comedy fan, a couple on the tiles or a group of 50. The capacity is the limit! If we’ve got the seats available, they’re yours for the taking. Some tour shows have restrictions on booking group size. Please contact the Box Office with any queries.

Sorry no. If you have any drop-outs, please get in touch with the box office on 0871 472 0400 / info@glee.co.uk and we’ll see what we can do for you.

Currently, the only discounts we offer are on some group, birthday, student and stag/hen bookings. Please contact the Box Office for further information. Alternatively, head to our Groups page and fill out the enquiry form.

Seating is unreserved, so we suggest you arrive early if you want to be sat in a specific place or with a group of friends. Although there will be enough seats for the amount of attendees, they are taken on a first come basis.

The Bullingdon is obliged by local licensing to enforce a 'Challenge 25' policy, which means anyone who looks under 25 may be asked for ID to gain entry. If when asked you fail to produce legally acceptable ID you may be refused entry without refund.

Please check the individual event for the age restrictions. 

Under 16s must carry photo ID and be accompanied by an adult with a ticket to the show at all times.

Accepted forms of ID:

- Passport
- Photo driving licence (provisional licences are accepted)
- Card with official PASS hologram

If you cannot provide valid when requested you may be refused entry. Refunds will not be issued for incorrectly booked tickets.

If you have booked a student ticket type - we absolutely need to see your student ID!
Accepted forms of student ID are a validated ID on the UNIDAYS, Student Beans or Totum app or an official student card that has a photo and expiry date.

If you can't provide one of the above forms of ID, you will be charged the difference between the student price and the full price ticket on the door. This is not refundable should you find your card or ID at some point later.

Food & Drink

I'm afraid not. However, we are located on Cowley Road, which has plenty of fantastic restaurants you can check out before or after the show.

Sure, head to The Bullingdon Cocktail Bar upon entry, and speak to the staff who will be happy to assist you (open 4pm - late)

Getting In / accessibility

We will do our best to help and accommodate your needs in a respectful and if required, confidential manner.

Please see our accessibility page for full details.

Please check individual event listings, and your confirmation email, for door times. We recommend arriving as early as possible to secure any preferred seats, as all seating is unreserved.

If you fancy meeting for a drink a little earlier, no problem - The Bullingdon's Cocktail Bar is open from 4pm daily.

Arriving during the entry time window printed on your confirmation is a condition of booking. If you arrive after this time, entry is at the discretion of the management who will do all they can to accommodate you.

If you don't make it before the show begins you will be asked to wait until the first possible opportunity of getting you in without disturbing the show.

If a member of your party knows they will be late in advance, it's always useful for our box office to know this, so please give us a call.

Seating is laid out in a theatre style, rows of seats facing the stage.

Seating is always unreserved, so we suggest you arrive early if you want to be sat in a specific place or with a group of friends. Although there will be enough seats for the amount of attendees, they are taken on a first come basis.

Join us, be merry, have a great time, but we are a licensed venue - which means we cannot legally permit entry, or serve alcohol, to anyone who has clearly stayed in the pub too long after work.

Customers who arrive already intoxicated will not be permitted entry and no refund offered. Any member of your party found in possession of or found using any prohibited drugs will be asked to leave. We reserve the right to conduct bag and body searches and also to pass any relevant information to police.

During your visit

Our shows are live and generally unscripted, so we can't always predict with certainty when they will end. However, as a general guide our Saturday Night Comedy shows and Christmas Comedy Specials finish before 10pm. Our comedy tour shows tend to finish between 9.30-9.45pm.

On a Saturday night (including Christmas), you are welcome to continue the merriment in The Bullingdon's cocktail bar within the venue. This stays open until late, and serves a wide range of drinks including craft beers and soft drinks (if cocktails aren't your thing!).

Once the show is over, you're welcome in The Bullingdon's Cocktail Bar (which also serves craft beers & coffees if cocktails aren't your thing). The bar is open from 4pm daily, until Midnight Sunday - Thursday, and until 2am on a Friday & Saturday night.

No, wear whatever you feel comfortable in. Some clothes are advised. Some people like to dress up, others go for casual attire. All styles are welcome at The Glee.

If you want to wear fancy dress, go for it, we don't have a problem with you looking a bit silly. However, you will be asked to remove anything that gets in the way of other customers' enjoyment of the show (eg, massive hats, flashing lights, noisy items).

No, sorry!

The biggest reason is, we want you and everyone in the room to be able to enjoy the show, undisturbed. We've all scowled at someone in the cinema who's phone goes off at a crucial moment, it's the same for a live show.

We require you to turn it off completely, or set it to silent and put it away.

Other reasons:

- We can't tell if customers are recording the show unless phones are turned off and put away, it's illegal to film a show, it is piracy.

- Every time you check your phone or go to text, the phone screen lights up like a Christmas tree. This is distracting to the acts and those around and behind you.

This only applies during the show, you have plenty of time before, during intervals, and after the show to check & use your phone. 

If you need to use your phone whilst the show is on, please simply leave the auditorium to do so.

All customers regardless of age, gender or perceived status are expected to treat the venue, staff, acts and fellow customers with due respect and good manners. This extends to talking during the show, which we consider to be rude and disrespectful to nearby customers, as well as the acts performing. Any customers found to be persistently talking, heckling, or demonstrating aggressive or intimidating behaviour will be ejected without refund. 

If you have a complaint about anything that is disrupting your experience, please query this with The Bullingdon staff on the night. If we know what's happening at the time, we will do all we can to quickly rectify this for you, and allow you to continue enjoying the evening.

If you would like to make a formal complaint after the event, or wish to send us some feedback, we welcome you to do so. Please contact our Box Office Manager at info@glee.co.uk with as much detail as possible. All complaints must be submitted in writing and cannot be processed via telephone.

They will make sure this complaint is passed on to the managers involved. We respond in every instance in due course, once the matter has been investigated.

everything else

The venue is central and has good access to accommodation and transport.

Please take a look at our Location page for all of these practical queries.

Alternatively, a quick internet search using the venue address will provide options. The Bullingdon, Cowley Rd, OX4 1UE

Whilst we make every effort to keep line-ups as listed, line-ups may be subject to change on our mixed bill weekend comedy shows. Some acts are unable to play the venue after all, for reasons outside of our control. When this happens, we always replace them as soon as is possible, with another top-notch act.

If you are planning to see a specific act on a mixed bill show, please bear in mind that line-ups are subject to change, and refunds cannot be issued.

Yes. Very! We book the best acts working on the UK & International circuit. These are fully-paid professionals, who know their comedy.

If you want to see who's booked in for the night of your show, head to the listings page and click on the performer's face or name to get a full bio with videos & links.

The booking fee applies to every ticket. The transparency of our pricing is as important to us as it is to our customers, so we have a small and upfront booking fee that covers the cost to our business. This in turn allows us to staff our box office for all of your enquiries and ticket bookings, allows customers to book online, and to transfer tickets between shows.

All bookings are non-refundable. Please read our full terms & conditions here.

Bookings for  Saturday Night Comedy shows are transferrable, using MyGlee. Transfers are subject to a £2 per ticket fee and are transferrable up to 1pm on the day of the show.

Please note that bookings to any other shows are not transferable or refundable once made. If you need any assistance in this matter, please contact the box office for advice.

If in the extremely rare circumstance that a show is cancelled, all customers will of course be offered a refund.

We are more than happy to donate pairs of tickets for use in charitable events. However, we will need proof that this is going to the named charity.

Please contact the box office at info@glee.co.uk or 0871 472 0400 with your enquiry. Please use this contact as opposed to social media messages.
