Melbourne International Comedy Festival Live Shows!

We’re back in 2024! If you’ve been to one of our live shows before, you’ll know that they’re always different and incredibly loose - but you can expect some hot riffs about the latest gaming news, some interactive segments, and probably a fashion report. We’re back for three live shows - unrecorded, unreleased, absolutely unsane.
Buy a Season Pass for $60 and get entry to all three live shows! See ticketing options for the first session to purchase your Season Pass.

Filthy Casuals with Tommy Dassalo, Ben Vernel and Adam Knox is a comedy podcast that launched in September of 2015.
