Where to Catch Stand-Up Comedy in Brussels

An Idiot’s Guide to Wine Blends Stand-Up with Tastings
For audiences wanting something a bit different, An Idiot’s Guide to Wine pairs professional stand-up comedy with a guided wine-tasting experience. Created in Australia by comedian Merrick Watts, the 70-minute production lets guests sample six different wine varietals from around the world while listening to a comedy show written by Watts and performed by a hand-selected comic.
The experience is designed to be approachable for both complete beginners and seasoned wine enthusiasts, proving that learning about wine does not have to be a dry affair. The tour stops in Brussels, Metz, Saint-André-lez-Lille, and Strasbourg. Organizers note that the event is presented in English, and alcohol consumption is entirely voluntary, with non-alcoholic options available for an additional fee.
