From the Wikipedia article
The Glee Club is a chain of independent live stand-up comedy and live music venues in the UK. The first Glee Club was opened by Mark Tughan in Birmingham's Chinese Quarter in 1994, the first dedicated comedy club to open in the United Kingdom outside London. A second branch opened in Cardiff in 2001 with a third club opening in Oxford in April 2010 and a fourth, two room club debuted in Nottingham in September 2010. Glasgow followed in February 2019, with Leeds becoming the latest club to come online in March 2025. A number of major names cut their teeth playing at The Glee, including Jack Dee, Peter Kay, Lee Mack and Ross Noble. The brand has been directly involved with numerous urban comedy festivals in their host cities, and also presented stand-up stages at major outdoor events, including V Festival from 2012-2017. The Glee Club Comedy Tent at V welcomed appearances from Sean Lock (V2012), Eddie Izzard and Josh Widdicombe (V2013), Alan Carr (V2014), Frankie Boyle and Russell Kane (V2016), and Joe Lycett (V2017).
