The support we give to working class acts is only possible thanks to donations and ticket sales. If you want to support the next generation of working class comics, grab a ticket to one of our upcoming shows or make a donation. If you can’t donate right now, please share our fundraiser with your networks.

2025 was a tough year for us, for the first time we saw a downward trend on online donations, ticket sales and money raised at our fringe shows. The rising cost of living means our audiences are now being priced out of attending. And those that can come, may not be able to afford to donate as much as in previous years.

Our primary aim at Best in Class is to support as many working class performers as we can through showcases, training, workshops and bursaries as well as offering subsidised fringe accommodation and advertising.

In order to do this we need to raise funds for 2026, please support us if you can by clicking the big red button to donate to Best in Class 2026.

Crowd funding is a lot like unionism, on our own we can’t change much, but when we join together we have the power to change the world.
