Up Next Comedy
Stay ahead of the curve with the freshest funnies from comedy’s new kids on the block!
Handpicked by Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Up Next Comedy showcases verified lineups of the funniest young performers from across the country. Expect stand-up, sketch, one too many TikTok references and a big-name special guest each show!
Mentored by professional comedy legends, all the performers have workshopped their very best material for these shows (picture a Rocky-style training montage, but with less punches and more punchlines). This is your chance to see the latest (and soon to be greatest) on the comedy scene.
Suitable for audiences 13+
Language – occasional coarse language
