First Of The Comedy Fest Shows On Sale Now!
This April, the NZ International Comedy Festival powered by Flick Electric Co. hits a quarter century, and it looks as though we’ve never needed comedy more. What better time is there to embrace the laughter, as others are closing borders, we are opening our arms to performers from all over the world. Here, they are welcome to share with us their perspectives and observations whilst making us laugh. The laughing bit is super important.
Today we are releasing 25 shows. Why 25? Because we’re 25, that’s the only real reason. Don't forget there is so much more to come when the full Fest is released on March 1.
It’ll be a great big melting pot of comedy with acts from Ireland, South Africa, Scotland, Finland, England, Australia, the United States and of course there’s some of our favourite Kiwis.
But the birthday presents don’t stop there! You probably already know that the Flick Electric Co. Comedy Gala hosted by Urzila Carlson is in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch this year, and it’s already on sale at here.
We’ll announce the full Comedy Fest line-up to you with pre-sale access on Tuesday 28 Feb.
If you are in Auckland and want to get a taste of comedy early, come along to Billy T Jams on Friday 3 March at Q Theatre. Hosted by Matt Okine and featuring performances from this year’s Billy T Award nominees and last year’s winner David Correos.
