Bug Hotel

14 - 15 Oct 2026

Bug Hotel

The Bug Hotel is a hilarious new hour of stand-up from Lovebugs Comedy, who are checking-in for a two night stay at The Bread & Roses in October, for Lambeth Fringe 2026. Five comedians. One hotel. Infinite ways for hospitality to go wrong. The Bug Hotel is a fast-moving mixed bill comedy show that exploits the comic potential of hotels: staff, guests, culture clashes and the chaos between them.

Lovebugs Comedy is a collective of fresh comedians who met at iconic venue The Bill Murray in Islington, in June 2025. Kieran Dee and Rosie G placed first and third respectively in 2026 All Stars final with G & B Comedy. Kieran plays the host in linking role of the Bug Hotel's Night Manager.

Members of the wider troupe have been building profile across the London circuit this year. Lovebugs' monthly stand-up comedy night in Bermondsey has quickly become a sought-after stage for guest acts.

Bug Hotel is their debut touring show.

Venue: The Bread & Roses Pub - John Burns Room (Garden Room)

The John Burns Room (Garden Room) of The Bread & Roses pub is a flexible and intimate space ideal for comedy, spoken word, live music, and cabaret. With its relaxed atmosphere and cosy beer garden, it offers a welcoming setting for both performers and audiences.

The Bread & Roses Pub is a unique, independent grassroots music venue with deep community roots. Owned by the Battersea and Wandsworth Trade Union Council and run by the Workers Beer Company, it is the UK’s only trade union-owned pub—reflecting a proud history of activism, inclusivity, and support for the arts.

Upstairs in the same building is the acclaimed Bread & Roses Theatre, home of the Lambeth Fringe, making the building a key part of the festival’s creative hub.
