Get ready to laugh until you cry, because the Melbourne International Comedy Festival is back and better than ever! From 29 March to 23 April, Melbourne will be buzzing with hilarious comedians from all over the world. With hundreds of shows taking place in venues big and small, there's something for everyone at this year's festival.
But let's face it, with so much laughter to be had, you'll need a comfortable and convenient place to rest your head. That's where Lancemore Crossley Street comes in. This luxurious boutique hotel is located right in the heart of Melbourne's CBD, so you're never far from the action. And with its stunning rooftop terrace, you can take in the sights of the city while enjoying a cocktail or two.
Speaking of action, there's plenty to be had at this year's festival. From the Gala to the Opening Night Comedy Allstars Supershow, there's no shortage of big-name comedians taking the stage. And if you're looking for something a little more offbeat, check out The Neighbourhood Sessions, where comics take over local community halls all across Melbourne.
Of course, no Melbourne International Comedy Festival would be complete without a bit of local talent, and this year's festival has plenty of it. Besties with Lucinda Price and Louis Hanson will have you in stitches with their hilarious takes on friendship, while Geraldine Hickey's Of Course, We've Got Horses is sure to be a hit with animal lovers. And if you're looking for something a bit more surreal, Lano and Woodley's take on Moby Dick is not to be missed.
But the festival isn't just about local talent. International stars like Carl Donnelley, Ed Gamble, Lara Ricote, and Joanne McNally will also be taking the stage, bringing their unique brand of humour to Melbourne audiences.
With so much laughter and excitement to be had, it's no wonder the Melbourne International Comedy Festival is one of the city's most popular events. And with Lancemore Crossley Street as your home base, you'll be able to enjoy it all in style and comfort. So what are you waiting for? Book your tickets now and get ready to laugh until you cry!
