Melbourne Comedy Festival Roadshow

Overview

Just as your side stitches have recovered, the Melbourne Comedy Festival Roadshow is back again for another hysterical year.

The biggest names in big gags are hitting the road as far as Hobart and as wide as Hong Kong and, in keeping with comedy tradition, will be warming the stage nearest you—Brisbane’s Powerhouse.

Last year they visited a staggering 109 shows in 60 towns nationwide; 2014 is the invitation for bigger and better performances, with the country’s finest comics, in more places than ever before. Leading this year's shenanigans will be MC, Brian Nankervis, Greg Behrendt, Hannah Gadsby, Elbowskin and Amos Gill.

Let the fear of having your friends tell you what amazing feats of mental wizardry you missed compel you to book sooner rather than later. This means your seats will be close enough to the stage so that you get picked out of the audience and have the opportunity to rub shoulders with your heroes during the funniest skit of the night, thus giving you the upper hand with your friends with the ultimate bragging rights.
