Every Saturday night at Canvas Loft Bar, Bournemouth
Planning a hen do in Bournemouth and need an idea that works for the whole group? Live comedy at Jaggers Bournemouth Comedy Club is one of the best hen night activities in the town — and one of the most underrated. While cocktail-making classes, spa days, and dinner packages all have their place, comedy gives a hen group something that most activities do not: a shared experience where every single person is engaged, reacting, and having a genuinely good time at the same moment. Jaggers runs every Saturday at Canvas Loft Bar on Poole Hill, which means there is a show available for almost any hen weekend. The format is simple — two hours of professional stand-up followed by an afterparty — and the energy a hen group brings to a live comedy show tends to make the whole room better.
Hen groups are a regular and welcome part of the Jaggers audience. The comedians who perform at Jaggers are experienced enough to know how to work with a lively group in the room, and a spirited hen party tends to make the atmosphere even more electric. The show starts at 8pm with doors opening at 7:30pm — arrive early as a group to get settled and find good seats together. The host opens the evening and introduces multiple stand-up acts, each one bringing different material and energy over the course of the two-hour show. Hen groups tend to enjoy the crowd interaction elements particularly, and the comedians will often acknowledge a hen party in the room as part of the show. After the comedy finishes at around 10pm, the afterparty is included in every ticket — no need to rush off to find the next venue, the night continues naturally at Canvas Loft Bar.
Bournemouth is one of the UK's most popular destinations for hen weekends, drawing groups from across the country for its beaches, bars, and entertainment.

Many hen parties combine the Jaggers comedy show with dinner at one of the nearby restaurants before the show, and some groups continue into Bournemouth's nightlife after the afterparty.
