Jason Manford has announced the launch of the Manford's Comedy Club 'New Act of the Year' 2020 competition following the success of the inaugural event this year. Manford's Comedy Club will once again be searching the country for the next big star!
Jason Manford will host for the Grand Final of the competition (date and venue to be announced), and will be joined by a panel of judges to help choose the best act along with the audience vote. The winner will receive a £1000 prize, progression spots with Manford's Comedy Clubs, be presented with an award trophy and also invited to appear as a guest on Jason Manford's Absolute Radio show. The runner up will receive a prize of £250 and the chance to progress with Manford's Comedy Clubs.
Jason Manford says: "One of the best things about having comedy clubs across the country is that I get to see the names of all the new exciting acts coming through the ranks. This competition will enable us to give these new acts a bigger leg up, and I'll get to see them all perform on the night".
The Semi-Final will be held as part of the Manford's Comedy Festival at The Winter Gardens, Blackpool on Saturday 2nd May.
