comedyfestival.com.au will link to the authorised ticketing provider for each event.
Can I buy tickets from somewhere other than official ticketing partners?
Many unofficial sellers will list tickets for sale, even though they do not actually have those tickets. This is called ‘speculative ticketing’. They are speculating that they will be able to get tickets and then resell them to fans. Those speculative listings are not real tickets in hand (they do not actually have those tickets to sell). Beware of these sellers.
Melbourne International Comedy Festival is subject to a major event ticket declaration under Part 9A of the Major Events Act 2009.

Offenders could face fines for multiple offences of up to $96,700 for an individual and $483,500 for a company.
To eliminate the risk of fraud, you are advised to purchase tickets from comedyfestival.com.au, as purchasing a ticket from an unauthorised seller can result in the ticket holder being denied entry.
