Bristol Boy and star of self titled Russell Howard’s Good News, will be headlining the comedy acts at this year’s Latitude Festival.

The four day summer festival event brings together some of the biggest comedy names at Henham Park in Southwold.

Latitude’s Curator of the Arts, Tania Harrison says: “Latitude has always prided itself on the breadth of our line ups and this year is very exciting. In the Comedy and Cabaret Arenas you’ll find newcomers, rising stars and international acts. We have comedy in all its guises, including the first of our announced headliners; Russell Howard, who we’re delighted is headlining on Friday. Russell is joined on the bill by some of the most brilliant UK and US comics, including Josh Widdicombe, Reggie Watts and Bridget Everett. We’re also presenting some of the most vibrant cabaret, from Duckie and The Glory. There’s a home for every kind of comic and comedy fan at Latitude this year.”

The festival is now in its 11th and will be running from Thursday 14 July until Sunday 17 July.
