Review of Festival of Comedy: Carmarthen
The amount of amazing comedians we saw for the price of the ticket was incredible and the standard was fantastic. The venue itself was cold and damp but that's Wales in October for you! May have been an idea to warn customers beforehand ... or maybe just have events there in the warmer months ... or serve warm drinks. Food/drink choice wasn't great and quite expensive but I guess to be expected.

Had to give it 5 stars as the best thing that's ever happened in that shed in Carmarthen. Really, really great night, and incredible performances from everyone. Definitely have a new fan... thank you

Review of Festival of Comedy: Carmarthen
So it's late October in Wales in an enormous shed.
The rain is deafening. The stage is small. The PA system is not enough to contend with the size of the echoing venue and the smashing of the rain on the roof. I can't say that I was able to clearly hear one of the comedy acts all the way through. I would not book this venue at this time of year again

Review of Festival of Comedy: Carmarthen
Great comedy set, security team were not very friendly at times. Fellow audience members were not respectful of the show, many were extremely drunk and should’ve of been spoken too
Venue was quite cold but wasn’t too bad, easy to access
Over all 3/5 :) would definitely go again

Review of Festival of Comedy: Carmarthen
The venue was poor, tin roof and biblical rain so actually couldn't hear the acts plus it was freezing.
We left early as too cold. Shame as I was really looking forward to the gig.

Review of Festival of Comedy: Carmarthen
Very happy with the acts which were of high quality, and we bought a 2 for 1 ticket so good value. Unfortunately, since it turned out to be held in a barn with 2 doors wide open the whole time in late October, it was freezing. Also it was difficult to hear the acts with the rain thundering on the roof.

Review of Festival of Comedy: Carmarthen
Badly signposted. The food offering was an overpriced burger van and an overpriced hot dog stall. bar was good. Freezing cold venue and doors left wide open on a cold wet day. Having said that, the compare Stefan Evans was superb as were all the comedy acts. Great atmosphere. Great mix of comedy styles. Thoroughly enjoyed but next time pick a nice warm venue.

Review of Festival of Comedy: Carmarthen
The event itself was great. The venue, however was dreadful. To hold it in a cold shed on a howlingly wet October night was crazy. Main doors were left open throughout the gig and it was absolutely freezing. Complete lack of signage to t5he venue also very poor. I would attend the event again but definitely not at this venue unless in the summer. Gave Carmarthen and any new visitors to it a very bad impression of the area

Review of Festival of Comedy: Carmarthen
I found the venue interesting, different, comical to a certain degree. The audio was echoey however could still hear over the rain. It was challenging at times to connect with the comedian, due to rain and echoed audio. (Rain not anyone's fault of course, but the building choice was a factor.) The side doors open gave no chance of it being a comfortable temperature. S sone were cold. The comedian choices were great. The compere was funny also. The food was limited and expensive however what was on offer tasted nice. With limited availability you should have let people in with their snacks etc. We enjoyed and would do it again. Life is about doing different things and having fun. Tick.

Review of Festival of Comedy: Carmarthen
Google Maps took me to the closed gate and had to rejoin fast carriageway. Then had to proceed to next roundabout, and drive all the way back to next roundabout and try again, just to me back at the roundabout. Took me 3 attempts to get to the venue. Comedy was amazing but getting to the venue was nightmare
