Carrie & Tommy’s My First Time

Carrie & Tommy are switching things up. In previous years, we’ve done a Roast, but in 2026, to celebrate the 40th Melbourne International Comedy Festival, we’re going somewhere a little more... nostalgic.

Introducing Carrie & Tommy’s My First Time. We’re inviting some of the biggest comedians from the Festival to take a trip down memory lane. Performing the very first comedy set they ever wrote.

And that’s not all. We’re also putting some of our favourite friends-of-the-show on the spot, challenging them to perform their first ever stand-up comedy set live on stage. It’s raw. It’s brave. It could be brilliant. It could be beautifully awkward.

You can be there. We’re giving FOX listeners the chance to score tickets by registering to win tickets. Be part of a one-night-only Comedy Festival event you won’t see anywhere else!
