London Clown Festival is delighted to announce it’s 2024 line up, a selection of the finest clowns the city, and indeed the world has to offer.

The festival has cemented itself as an annual fixture of the London comedy scene; a festival of physical comedy and clown influenced contemporary performance. Packed with physical comedy and buffoonery London Clown Festival is thrilled to once again bring the best of UK and International clowning to the capital.

Championing the rise of contemporary clowning, London Clown Festival continues to give a platform to a plethora of talented performers specialising in clown and physical performance. The 2024 festival programme sees another exciting, inspiring, and eclectic mix of performers who embody the principals of this timeless art form from countries all over the world.

London Clown Festival have again teamed up with Soho Theatre for the 2024 festival and is delighted to also be working with Jacksons Lane Theatre for the first time.

Another new addition to the 2024 line up will be an immersive event – London Clown Tarot: The Fools Journey, which will see all three floors of the Betsey Trotwood in Farringdon filled with embodied cards of the Tarot major arcana combined with historic clowns to create a new and original deck personified. Audiences will receive a Clown Tarot reading and then quest to meet this card within the spaces to gain some idiotic insight for pure delight as they explore, or they may be side-tracked by games and performances on this unusual evening.
