Jack Holmes is a British-born comedian based in Central Europe. Known for his high-energy performances, Holmes leaves audiences in fits of laughter wherever he goes. His jokes walk a delicate line between anger and absurdity, whilst tackling self-depreciation and cross-cultural observations to hilarious and heart-warming effect.

Holmes has developed a reputation as one of the hardest working comedians in Europe, often performing upwards of 200 shows a year, and has worked in 30+ countries over 4 continents. He was featured in Austria's first ever televised English stand-up Broadcast, has recorded Comedy specials and live albums and made appearances at major festivals (Sziget Fest, Utrecht International Comedy Festival and Panč), as well as opening for multiple household name comedians, all of which has cemented his as one of the names to watch for in the European comedy scene.

His new touring show, “Light in the Dark” is an exploration of the funniest things about the hardest parts of our lives. Fear, failure and mental health are explored with honesty and hilarity, whilst Love, death and heart ache are broken apart and with a light shone on them, to show that we as a people are more often more similar to each other than we are different. The show never takes a pretentious or edgy angle, instead Jack Holmes offers himself up as a sacrifice to bring together our collective trauma, so it can be handled with side splitting humor, if only for one night.

Life's not always fun, but it can always be funny.
