Venue 438 is now known as Scottish Comedy Festival @ Waverley Bar, but in 2017 it was called Waverley Bar.
The Waverley Bar is located off the High Street, where it turns into the Canongate. As the name of the bar suggests it is a minute's walk from Waverley Station. Established since the Fifties as a prominent venue for rising stars in the folk world (vintage poster and photos of banjo-playing Billy Connolly and the Humblebums adorn the wall), with an ambiance that seems to have little changed since the 1920s.
