Hobart Festival of Comedy will take over Odeon, Altar Bar and In The Hanging Garden precinct for five epic nights. A fully-stacked lineup of 30 comedians will come together from our island state, the mainland, and overseas.

We're treating you to five nights of polite roasts, provocative performances, musical comedy, post-divorce rants, a dash of hypnosis, and even a naughty little number called Nun Slut (sorry, nan).
