Barnsley, this is a belter.
On May 2nd, Barnsley Civic plays host to a cracking night of stand-up featuring four absolute pros at the top of their game.
I'm on along with Stephen Grant, a master of beautifully crafted stand-up with that laid-back confidence that only comes from years on the circuit.
Seeta Wrightson brings bags of energy and a brilliantly offbeat take on the world, while Bob Mills—yes, that Bob Mills—delivers the kind of seasoned, effortless comedy you only get from someone who’s seen it all and still finds it ridiculous.
Four acts. No weak links. Proper comedy.
If you like your stand-up live, loud and genuinely funny, this is the one.

This is the moment.
Wentfest isn’t just another event… it’s our festival. Built by local people, for local people, right in the heart of the Dearne Valley.

A full day of live music, comedy, DJs, food, laughs, and proper good times with your mates and your family. The kind of day you talk about all summer.

And this year? It’s bigger. Properly bigger.

But here’s the thing… the people who already get it have already got their tickets.

Every year we see it. The “we’ll sort it later” crowd are the same ones messaging the week before asking if there’s anything left.

Don’t be that person.

Because right now, you can still get Tier 1 prices… but they’re gone as soon as the bank holiday ends.

Get it in the diary. Get your tickets sorted. Give yourself something to look forward to.

Because Wentfest isn’t just a day out… it’s your day out.

Tickets are waiting for you now at wentfest.com

Let’s make this the biggest one yet.

THREE MONTHS TO GO!
Wentfest is getting closer and it’s already shaping up to be something special. Tickets are flying out, the lineup is ridiculous, and this year is on course to be the biggest and best one yet.
If you’ve already got your tickets, first of all… excellent life choices.
Second… tell your mates, your family, the people you work with, the ones you always say you should go out with more but never do. Get them involved.
Days like this are always better when you’re surrounded by your lot. More laughs, more singing, more moments you’ll be talking about for the rest of the year.
Let’s make this the year Wentfest feels like one massive get-together rather than just a gig in a field.
Tag the people you want there with you.
Remind the ones who haven’t bought yet.
Get everyone sorted now.
Three months to go. Let’s make it the best day out of the summer.
