"Following the 2017 fest, we set a brief that was simply to make it bigger, funnier and unmissable, and that is exactly what I believe this year’s Festival delivers," Sydney Comedy Festival Director Jorge Menidis said.

Fans of US comedy won’t be disappointed with cult favourites Kyle Kinane, Rory Scovel and Ari Shaffir heading Down Under, as well as SNL star Michael Che.

Those looking for a laugh and to support a good cause at the same time can head along to Frocking Hilarious, an all-female gala presented by ActionAid Australia with all proceeds going towards the support of women’s rights across the globe.

All the action will kick off at the huge Sydney Comedy Festival gala at the Opera House on 23 April, with shows playing in venues throughout the city until 20 May.

Tickets to all shows at the Sydney Comedy Festival are on sale from Thursday, 1 March; for more information and to check out the full program, head to the official website.
