The Grand Regency Ballroom - The Old Bell

130 seater room accessible function room in one of the UK’s oldest coach houses, the Old Bell. The Old Bell in Derby is a grade II listed coaching inn dating back to the 17th century. Having recently undergone a £1.3m renovation it has been restored to its former beauty and is the perfect place for all the family to eat, drink and be entertained. The Old Bell Hotel is a beacon of Derby’s history and heritage stretching back over 350 years. The Old Bell Hotel is Derby’s largest and last surviving coaching inn and has played a huge role in the history of Derby. The grade II listed building was constructed in 1650 and was considered one of the most prestigious coaching inns outside of London. For much of the 17th and 18th century The Old Bell Hotel was a centre for travel, food, hospitality and leisure as well as the home to many families. Boasting four functions rooms, three bars and The Belfry restaurant, The Old Bell Hotel continues to be at the centre of Derby’s food, drink and entertainment scene.

We close out our festival with a bang, with a mega show brought to you by Gag n Bone Comedy!

Britain Got Talent winner Lost Voice Guy headlines the show with his brilliant comedy about life with cerebral palsy but without a voice...

Lee Ridley (aka Lost Voice Guy) won Britain's Got Talent in 2018 and the BBC New Comedy Award in 2014. His TV and radio credits include Christmas Comedy Club With Lost Voice Guy (ITV), The Royal Variety Performance (ITV), Britain's Got Talent: The Champions (ITV), Britain's Got Talent Christmas Spectacular (ITV), America's Got Talent: The Champions (NBC), Comic Relief (BBC One), Live At The Apollo (BBC Two), The Last Leg (Channel 4), Comedians Giving Lectures (Dave), Question Team (Dave), Jerk (BBC Three) and The Now Show (BBC Radio 4).

As if that isn't enough, opening the show is the fantastic Paul Tonkinson. It's almost hard to believe but Paul has been at the top of the stand up comedy world for over 3 decades! He was winner of the 1992 Time Out New Act of the Year Award and was Time Out Stand Up Comic of the Year in 1997. He won the 2002 Jongleurs Best Comedy Performer award and remains one of the most sought after and respected comedians in the country and beyond - in fact he was the first comedian to perform in Iraq after the war there, when he entertained the UK Armed Forces. He is also remembered fondly as a host of the Big Breakfast (remember that?!) and the Sunday Show.

In the middle section we'll have performances from the newly crowned Ram Fest Comedian of the Year and Ram Fest New Act of the Year.

Hosting the show is Graeme Rayner. Graeme was a semi-finalist in the 2023 British Comedian of the Year competition and his solo shows Dadology and KrowdWerk are featuring at the festival.
