Brace yourselves for the spontaneous brilliance of
6 nights a week of late night anarchy.

and overseas comedians create the highlights. And when
they can't talk anymore, they'll dance 'til dawn to
guest bands and DJ's.
Tuesdays - Superstar Karaoke

karaoke inviting guest comedians to show off their rock
'n roll aspirations. At best you'll be entertained, and

of the Festival.
