TV star Mark Watson is to headline the first ever Barnard Castle Comedy Festival.
The award-winning comedian, who has starred in shows such as Mock The Week and Never Mind The Buzzcocks, will perform alongside a host of stars at The Witham arts centre on Saturday, July 18.
The confirmation of Mark Watson as the festival's headliner means the line-up for Teesdale's first ever comedy festival is now complete, with the Edinburgh Festival Award Winner joining Alex Horne, Jo Caulfield, Tony Law, Lost Voice Guy and Lee Kyle on the bill.
Festival organiser, Peter Dixon, said: "We are thrilled that Mark Watson is headlining our first Barnard Castle Comedy Festival. His appearance fits perfectly with the line-up that we had already secured for the day.
The Barnard Castle Comedy Festival is organised by Teesdale comedy promoters Funny Way To Be with shows running from noon until late.
Early bird tickets cost £45.
