Down the Hatch won ‘Best Comedy Format’ at the Chortle Awards 2024 and features a night of queer and alternative comedy acts for everyone to enjoy (yes, allies are welcome too!).

Bogan Bingo
Bingo, with a twist. Say goodbye to boring bingo halls, with Bogan Bingo there will never be a quiet moment. Having performed at Komedia for over 10 years, our two Aussie hosts bring mullets, appalling choreography, and ridiculous prizes to this 80’s themed bingo show.
Bogan Bingo happens at Komedia every month but if you want even more Bogan Bingo, how about a monthly Bogan Bingo Bottomless Bunch? You can’t get much better than that.
Kids Shows
You may not know, but Komedia hosts a whole range of children’s shows year-round!
Award-winning children’s theatre company Fideri Fidera bring music, movement and storytelling fun to Komedia every Friday with Story Magic, for babies and children ages 9 months to 4 years.
From April through to October, on the first Sunday of every month, Sundae Club gives parents and children and entire afternoon of activities, featuring a children’s comedy or theatre show, a craft workshop from Pull & Pin themed around the show and a live band to end your day. Plus, as the name suggests, ice cream sundaes are available.
Comedy Club 4 Kids takes place every few months and features the best stand-ups and sketch acts for children aged 6+ and their families. Fun for one, and fun for all! ‘The fun, rowdy feel of a real comedy club’ – The Guardian
Also, keep an eye out every December for a fantastic children’s Christmas show. In 2024, it’s original new comedy Franky!
