The nightclub is ideally located at the end of the Rue de Moulins, one of the the most popular spots for bars in Chamonix. Chamonix recently lost one its favourite clubs, the Cantina closed it’s doors last autumn so with this new nightclub, Chamonix is back on the map as a great place to party in the Alps.

With the very best of UK stand up and this is going to be a very special gig with these very popular comedians:

Brendon Burns

Australian comic Brendon Burns has been performing comedy since the early Nineties and is known for his aggressive
stage presence and controversial material. He briefly hosted the 11 O’Clock Show and even more briefly the ITV2 spin-off show I?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here Now!, walking off after just three shows. However it is live ?¢‚Ǩ‚Äú and especially in his solo shows ?¢‚Ǩ‚Äú where he has forged a reputation, with six live CDs to his name.

He has also performed at Montreal and South African comedy festivals He first appeared at the Edinburgh Fringe in 1996, hosting The Comedy Zone showcase of new acts, and performing in his debut solo show 6pm Time To Get Up For Work. He has returned to the Fringe every year since, except for 1999, and in 2007 won its top prize, the if.comedy award
A trilogy, Burnsy versus Brendon, which ran at Edinburgh examined his own life ?¢‚Ǩ‚Äú culminating in his mental breakdown and drinks and drugs rehabilitation at the Priory.

Carl Donnelly

“The reason why Donnelly is one of the highest-rated emerging stars on the UK circuit is his incredible ability to turn the seemingly mundane existence of the 21st-century slacker into gripping, unmissable stand-up. In Donnelly’s hands, something as simple as getting out of bed can be the springboard to a hilarious anecdote” The Guardian

“[Donnelly] has developed an style that is the antithesis of the loud, sweaty, manic comic so prevalent on the telly and live tours at the moment. This is standup with valium: near horizontal levels of louche that takes the mundane stories of everyday life and turns them into stretches of self-deprecating silliness” The Guardian

“His ability to drop in and out of his material allows him to deliver an electric performance that reveals him to be a natural and gifted comedian” Broadway Baby

JFB (UK DMC Champion),

ENGINE-EARZ EXPERIMENT (DJ SET), NICOLAS DUVOISIN AND THE WINTER SESSIONS CREW

Nicolas Duvoisin is the local hero of minimalist house and techno with his label Fantastic Friends based in Geneva. His slick style and Swiss precision has won him countless gigs around the world in some of the most selective locations.

JFB is the UK 2007 DMC Champion which speaks for itself when it comes to decks mastery. His collaborations with the likes of Beardyman and his own night Battlejam mean we should be expecting some fireworks on the decks with this one. Engine-EarZ – what is there to say? Revolutionary.

Shiny Disco Balls – Engine-EarZ Experiment by Engine-EarZ and DJ Luxy

Groundbreaking! These guys have headlined Glastonbury BBC Stage, performed two BBC Radio 1 Maida Vale sessions and have only just released their first single ‘Kaliyuga’.

The Indian inspired dub step is a sound like no other and they have been said to be the next Rage Against The Machine crossed with the Prodigy. Hold tight for the audio ride of your life!
