UP Comedy Festival 2026 reaches its climax in this final battle, where the 8 best comedians from the talent competition compete for the title of Talent of the Year. After 28 contestants started out, the field has now been narrowed down to this elite group. Host Stefan Wibling leads the show, where the winner of the competition will later be celebrated at the UP Comedy Awards.
Through an open call, the festival has discovered new talent from across the country — comedians who have trained at open mics nationwide and now get the chance to showcase their skills on a bigger stage. This is an encounter between experience and raw talent, where each performance must be convincing to secure victory.
The show lasts 2 hours and takes place at Knock Knock Comedy Club in Copenhagen. Admission from age 15 (photo ID required).
