Comedy shows invited to apply

Applications are now open for artists to apply to perform at the next Vault Festival.

The event returns to Waterloo in London from Tuesday January 31 and features hundreds of shows, including comedies, in venues including atmospheric tunnels, studio theatres, and site-specific spaces.

The deadline for applications for 8pm on Monday July 18.  There is no application fee and no set artistic criteria - applicants are encouraged to propose ‘daring, challenging and entertaining work across a range of genres’

Vault director Andy George said: ‘Since 2012, Vault Festival has welcomed thousands of creative and hugely talented artists, from so many different backgrounds and experience levels, to showcase bold and original work.

‘We were beyond heartbroken to have to cancel Vault Festival 2022 - it would have been our 10th anniversary and we had lots planned to make it something truly special.

For 2023, we’ve got some treats in the works to amaze and inspire audiences on our return. We’ve been working hard to ensure that Vault Festival flourishes, and continues to offer artists a safe and unique space to platform and present exceptional new work, tell their stories, and make themselves heard.’
