Malthouse Comedy

Part of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival 

Malthouse Theatre is proud to produce a massive comedy program right here at the centre of Melbourne's buzzing arts precinct. In 2024, we delivered our biggest year yet, becoming one of the major hubs of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. We brought some of the most exciting names in comedy as well as emerging, local artists to our packed-out venues – and this year is set to be even bigger!

Featured artists from previous programs include Rose Matafeo (NZ), Rueben Kaye (AUS), Daniel Kitson (UK), Garry Starr (AUS), Hot Department (AUS), Ed Byrne (UK), Hannah Camilleri (AUS), Geraldine Quinn (AUS), Dr Brown (USA), Jason Leong (MA), Alex Hines (AUS) and Liz Kingsman (AUS/UK).

Malthouse Comedy will run from 26 March to 20 April 2025 as part of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
