The stand-ups slated to hit the stage are Frankie Boyle, Josie Long, Stephen Buchanan, Susie McCabe and Jin Hao Li.
Mark Nelson will be taking on hosting duties for the fun-filled evening.
Taking place at the Glee Club in Glasgow, all proceeds from the show will go towards supporting the work of Scottish Refugee Council.
Frankie Boyle said he was "really looking forward" to taking to the stage and showing solidarity with refugees.

Stephen Buchanan said refugee and asylum issues were causes ‘close to his heart.’ He said: “It's a charity that does lots of amazing and extremely important work. My mum has taken in a few refugees over the years so it's a cause that is close to my heart.”
Jin Hao Li added: “Scotland has given me a home away from home when I was an international student, and I hope this welcoming space can be that for others too.”
Josie Long said: “I am so glad to be able to help support and welcome refugees in Scotland. I can’t wait for this gig.”
Tickets can be bought via this link from 10am on Friday 7th July.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
