Luke McGregor, Lizzy Hoo, Geraldine Hickey, Lloyd McGregor and more set to deliver the big laughs at Melbourne Comedy Festival

Melbourne Comedy Festival is set to deliver big laughs and unforgettable moments bringing together seven of Australia’s brightest comedic talents—Luke McGregor, Lizzy Hoo, Geraldine Hickey, Lloyd McGregor, Gillian Cosgriff, Zoe Coombs Marr and Jenny Tian for a stellar lineup of comedy.

Luke McGregor – Okay, Wow


One of Australia’s favourite comedians is back on the comedy stage for the first time in eight years. A lot has changed for Luke McGregor since he last caught you up. He’s now got a wife, children, two chickens and an axolotl. What hasn’t changed is his awkward charm, quick wit and self-deprecating humour.

Geraldine Hickey – Meander


GeraldineHickey is taking time to stop and smell the roses. She loves a good meander – a chance to take a long walk and let her mind wander. She ponders the big things in life… just as long as they don’t lead her to panic and the desperate need for someone to pick her up.

Lloyd Langford – Powerful Energy


Whether he is performing comedy, putting the bins out or refusing to move out of the out of the aisle for books in an op shop, people cannot help but notice Lloyd Langford’s powerful energy. With his brand-new stand-up show set to be unleashed, audiences can immerse themselves in Lloyd’s undeniable vibe.

Lizzy Hoo – Déjà Hoo

Lizzy Hoo is back with a brand-new show about being stuck on repeat and trying to find the skip button. As a 41yo single career lady that has shared custody of a dog, this show is about trying to find connection in ways she never thought she would: coffee shops, hiking groups, dating men in open relationships (which she swears by for the busy working woman), bungee jumping, piano lessons and romantic island getaways (alone).

Zoë Coombs Marr – The Splash Zone

Fresh from sold out runs in Edinburgh, London, LA, and New York, Zoë Coombs Marr is back with The Splash Zone, a brand-new show that promises to be a messy, unfiltered dive into the art of conversation. Zoë is inviting audiences to pop on their ponchos and strap in for a full-throttle, pedal-to-the- metal, gloriously silly ride—going all in, pulling out all the stops, and leaping before looking, all in the name of laughter.

Jenny Tian – Jenny’s Travels

Australian comedian Jenny Tian has moved to London. Ok, so maybe that’s not very original, but it’s certainly given her a lot to laugh about, and she shares it all to brilliant comic effect in her latest show.

Hear Jenny’s stories of phone snatching, cultural oddities and “finding herself” in Jenny’s Travels.

Gillian Cosgriff – Fresh New Worries

Captivating multi-talented singer, writer, actor, musician and comedian Gillian Cosgriff has a new show for all the overthinkers, stress heads and worrywarts out there. Forget your worries – Gillian’s got fresh new ones in a show that features brilliant songs, joyful pessimism, and a high likelihood of leaving lighter than you came in.
