Overview

One of Melbourne's most unique venues will welcome some of the biggest names in standup, as part of an unusual collaboration with this year's Melbourne International Comedy Festival. On Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesday throughout the fest — which runs March 29 through to April 23 — the river-adjacent Arbory Bar & Eatery will host the Silent Comedy Festival. They assure us it will be a lot funnier than it sounds.

Jimeoin, Dave Hughes, Bev Killick and Mandy Nolan are but a few of the comedians who are set to take part in an event inspired by silent discos. Each performer's microphone will be connected to headphones worn by audience members, who, from the perspective of anyone passing by, will be laughing at the sound of silence.

Tickets to the Silent Comedy Festival cost $25 and include four stand-up sets.
