An historic country house in Derbyshire will host television comedians including Ed Byrne and David O’Doherty, Strictly Come Dancing star Anton Du Beke and royal wedding performers The Kingdom Choir.

The walled garden at Melbourne Hall will be the location for the intimate weekend events in May this year, influenced by Lord and Lady Ralph Kerr’s love of the arts.

Live At Melbourne Hall will launch with Just the Tonic on May 13-15, featuring headliners Ed Byrne and David O’Doherty, along with Johnny Vegas compering on the Sunday evening. The stars of Mock the Week, 8 out of 10 Cats and Taskmaster will be joined by established and upcoming comics.

Johnny Vegas says: “Just the Tonic has always been one of my favourite gigs….I just get to mess about. But now they are doing events in this amazing location with such a great line-up of acts, it’s just got better.”
