WEST END NEW ACT OF THE YEAR SHOWCASE 2026.

Now into its 5th amazing year, The WENAOTY is a showcase for the UK's finest comedy competition. Over 250 new acts applied and they were whittled down the final 15 who will be appearing over the full run of the Fringe. Loads of shows claim to have the best new acts but we've had the heats to prove it! Hosted by Steve McLean.
