About this event

Tasmania, we've finally returned!

This time in a new location and on a Saturday night. Bringing you some of Melbourne's best comedians for a showcase that will have you splitting your sides.

Join us for a solid night of live entertainment with one of Australis's best quality comedy clubs. Showcasing some of the best new talent around, supported by celebrity headline acts.

Hand selected quality line ups means you're assured laughter from the get go, then finished off with a professional headline act. Previous headliners include; Steve Hughes, Dave O'Neil, Dave Hughes, Lehmo, Bob Franklin, Luke Heggie, Denise Scott, Fiona O'Loughlin, Tony Martin, Richard Stubbs, Nick Cody, Dilruk Jayasinha and heaps more!

This really is the night out you've been needing. Often patrons leave the night with sore jaws and stomachs with a positive vibe that can't be matched.

So book a babysitter, send the kids to the Grandparents and head on down for a scrumptious meal and night you won't forget. Call that person you’ve been meaning to take on a date, now you have a ‘good excuse’ ;)

Make this that special 'date night' you've been needing.

Hurry and book now. Go on... You deserve a good laugh!

This show is 18+

PLEASE NOTE ALL DINNER AND SHOW PACKAGES ARE AROUND THE CORNER @ THE MAYPOLE HOTEL. DINNER WILL BE SERVED BEFORE THE SHOW. PLEASE ARRIVE SHARPLY @ 5:45PM
