Ed Night’s recent online sketches have garnered tens of millions of views across Instagram & TikTok, as well as a nomination for the Chortle awards 2024. In 2017 his debut hour at the Edinburgh Fringe, Anthem For Doomed Youth, saw him become one of the youngest ever nominees for the Edinburgh Comedy Award for Best Newcomer, and netted him a position as the co-host of BBC Radio 1’s first piece of comedy commissioning for ten years. That same year Ed Night was nominated for the Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year award.
His 2018 sophomore show, An Aesthetic, sold out its entire run at the Edinburgh Fringe & he performed the show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2019, where he also featured in their prestigious opening night gala on ABC. His follow-up show, Jokes of Love & Hate, received widespread critical acclaim & was awarded pick of the Edinburgh fringe by critics from both The Times & The Scotsman.
In 2024 Ed completed his debut tour, Rise & Smile, which began in his hometown of Streatham and ended in Copenhagen. Later that year he made his highly anticipated return to the Edinburgh Fringe, his first since 2019, with his show The Plunge. The show received critical acclaim & was one of the best reviewed shows of the festival as well being listed by Rolling Stone as one of The 12 Stand Out Shows of Edinburgh Fringe 2024.
His writing has been featured on shows such as; The Mash Report, 8 out of 10 Cats, The News Quiz, Mock the Week, & Comedy Central’s Roast Battle, on which he also appeared. He’s lent his skills as an actor to many strange & intense characters in some of the country’s most popular comedy shows, most recently playing; The Pot Hole Man in BBC 3’s Broadcast Award-winning Zen Motoring, White Luther in Channel 4’s Complaints Department, and recurring character Karl Fink in BBC Radio 4’s Icklewick FM.
