ABOUT FUNNY COAST COMEDY
 

​Funny Coast Comedy was established in 2020 - our mission was to bring a little FUNNY to the SUNNY Coast promoting world-class comedy shows in a smaller, more intimate setting than what you might find in our region's theatres.

 

Now in our 5th year, we've produced hundreds of shows from Noosa into the Hinterland and down to Caloundra and in 2025 we ventured interstate and are producing shows at Perth Fringe World, Adelaide Fringe and Melbourne International Comedy Festival as well as tours all over the country.

 

Back on the coast we offer comedy workshops and public speaking coaching, we provide comedians and MCs for your corporate events, work parties, charity & fundraising events & heaps more!

Everything comedy related... on the Sunshine Coast and beyond... is right here. Let's spread some joy and laughter.
