WINNER Dave’s Funniest Joke of the Fringe 2024
As seen on Mock The Week, BT Sport, and ITV, Mark Simmons is a ‘master of one-liners.’ His 200+ date debut tour was not only a sell-out success but also spanned the UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand.
Now, Mark returns in 2026 with Jest To Impress, a brand-new show packed with razor-sharp one-liners. Additionally, his quick-witted, off-the-cuff jokes – based on audience suggestions – ensure every show is unique.
Meanwhile, his hit podcast, Jokes With Mark Simmons, continues to attract big names. Guests such as Gary Delaney, Sarah Millican, Milton Jones, and even Penn & Teller join him to discuss jokes that, for one reason or another, didn’t quite work.
All things considered, Mark’s sharp humour guarantees an unforgettable night of comedy.
