In addition, the worlds funniest people descend on the CBD for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival!
If you haven't already been, there are SO many acts, there's something for everyone! It's worth remembering the big name acts come with a bigger ticket price. But why not check out the Aussie acts, just as funny but they make for a cheap nite out! And you can see more acts for your money!
The Athaneum offer $5 comedy nites with 4-5 decently hilarious comedians strutting their stuff on stage. Best part is, you can have dinner and/or a few drinks while watching the acts because the stage is in a big ol' bar with Hogwarts style tables running in rows across the room.
Don't forget the little venues out of the CBD in those funky inner city suburbs like Brunswick and Richmond which are already cool for an easy nite out but now, with comedy acts on top!
In fact, I was at a FREE comedy night in Richmond last week. They staged 6 comedy acts per nite and as it was being hosted at a pub, there was pub grub and booze available at very pub (reasonable) prices.
And you know another thing.. it was miserable and raining all day Monday and into the nite. That was a good nite for keeping warm in flanny PJs on the couch. But, being Melbourne, the next day was sunny, surprisingly warm and the balmy climate extended into the late evening meaning it was perfectly suited to be out and about, catching a few laughs and having a few drinks.
Oh Melbourne, is there nothing you can't do!
