The official line up and schedule for the second Altitude Comedy Festival in Meribel has just been announced. As well as lots of comedy, fun and games, KT Tunstall will be headlining a concert at the Olympic Ice Rink in aid of the World Wildlife Fund on 31st March.
The festival kicks off on 28th March with a Gala opening night of comedy featuring Marcus Brigstocke, one of Altitude's co-founders. Other acts performing over the week include Ed Byrne, Andrew Maxwell and Omid Djalili, the award-winning British-Iranian actor/comedian.
The festival runs up until 3rd April with daytime slopeside events(such as boarder cross, big air, snowball fights), apres ski parties including a battle of the bands competition, and evening comedy and music performances.
We first mentioned Altitude back in early February in our feature on alpine festivals, so now that we have the full line up and schedule we can't wait.
As the founders have said:
"The Altitude Festival is the Alp's only comedy festival and therefore it's biggest, most successful and best!"
Tickets start from 0 and go up to 25€, and there are multi-event passes available to save you money. You can buy them from the Altitude website.
