Comedy, free events, "Inverness"

Comedy's favourite grumpy old man leads you on a magical mystery jaunt.

Fred MacAulay takes charge (we're not sure how easy that'll be) of a football, no doubt featuring some of the talent from the fest.

All sort of outdoor larks.

A showcase of the best and brightest Gaelic comedy to come out of Happyness. We're sure it'll be an-greannmhar ('very funny', according to our online translator …)

A selection of the brightest comedy types from the festival.

Comedy rap rascals from Cornwall.

The master of kids' comedy presents a show packed with proper laughs, without the rude bits. For ages 6+.

Songs, sketches, falsetto and violence, laced with a sci-fi theme from the ever popular Sock Puppets.

So You Think You're Funny has launched the careers of comedic greats such as David O'Doherty, Peter Kay and Dylan Moran, so there's every chance you'll see a stadium-filler of the future as hopefuls compete for a place in the competition's heats.
