This year’s opening night gala was massive and it’s only going to get bigger so get amongst it.
In March 2013, the inaugural Canberra Comedy Festival showed that Canberrans have an appetite for live Comedy, with 3,800 attendees and even a marriage proposal during a show! The 2014 festival will run from 4 to 9 March, beginning with a dazzling Opening Night Gala featuring performances from the festival’s best comedians. The festival will then host a whopping 50 stand-up comedy shows over the next five days.
The Opening Night Gala will be on Tuesday March 4 in the Canberra Theatre Centre, and features the biggest line-up of comedians ever to hit Canberra! The performers are a mix of local, national, and international comedians, and there will be some very special guests!
Associate Director Benjamin Stevenson says, “The full program for the festival is absolutely mind-blowing. And the Gala that kicks it all off, all I have to say is: Grab Your Tickets Now. Last year the Gala sold out in less than 2 weeks, and the line-up this year is so good we have to keep it a secret! What I can tell you is that there will 11 of the absolute best comedians in a star studded line-up, and that as soon as we announce them, you’ll sell your granny for a seat.”
The Gala is on exclusive pre-sale to Riot Act members from today. Tickets to the public go on sale on 9am Friday December 13, along with tickets to many other Canberra Comedy Festival shows.
