Man of mirth is returning

|June 26, 2025
IF you're in need of a good laugh and some big-name entertainment, then look no further than Westlands Entertainment Venue.
On Wednesday, July 16, we are delighted to welcome back Jason Manford for two fantastic performances at 6.30pm and 9pm.
One of the UK’s most popular entertainers and comedians, Jason hails from Salford, Lancashire. He began his comedy career in 1999 while working at the Buzz Comedy Club in Chorlton, Manchester. At the time, Jason was collecting glasses when a performer failed to show up for their evening slot. Seizing the moment, 17-year-old Jason stepped in to fill the gap - and the rest, as they say, is history. Just six gigs later, he was crowned The City Life North West Comedian of the Year.
After winning several smaller awards, Jason was nominated for the Perrier Award at the Edinburgh Festival in 2005 for his show Urban Legends, and shot to stardom as team captain on Channel 4’s 8 Out of 10 Cats in 2007.
