Laugh It Off This Winter
Frankston City’s Comedy Nights are here to Get You Out and About
Winter doesn’t have to be all trackies and takeaway. As the chill creeps in and your couch is calling, let’s flip the script, and check out Frankston’s seriously funny lineup of comedy shows that’ll warm your soul and shake the frost off your face.
If you’ve been thinking “we should do something” every weekend only to end up scrolling TikTok until midnight, consider this your sign. Rally the crew, book the Uber, and get out of the house.
Frankston after dark has seriously stepped it up. Cozy bars, buzzing restaurants, craft drinks, and now, a comedy calendar that’s punching way above its weight.
Whether you’re into sharp-witted satire, loose units spinning wild stories, or that classic Aussie humour that hits close to home, there’s something for everyone this winter.
Check out the shows we’ve found so far. From breweries, to bars and bigger shows in the Frankston Arts Centre, if we’ve missed one, let us know in the comments.
MAY COMEDY
Ivan Aristeguieta: All Bangers, No Mash!
One of the best exports from Venezuela since... ever. Ivan brings wild energy and spot-on observations about Aussie life that’ll leave you wheezing. It’s smart, silly, and all-round spicy. After a decade of cracking up crowds, Ivan’s cherry-picked the ultimate set.

Ross Noble: Cranium of Curiosities
Strap in. Ross Noble’s mind works in ways the rest of us could never predict. This show promises glorious chaos, surreal tangents, and that sense that absolutely anything could happen (and usually does).
One brain. Infinite weirdness. Total comedy chaos.
JUNE COMEDY
Sammy J: The Kangaroo Effect
Thursday, 6 June
Sharp, musical, and politically cheeky, Sammy J is back with a time-travelling comedy about life's weird turns and attention seeking gone wrong. Don't miss you chance to see Sammy J's signature blend of storytelling, songs and one very questionable kangaroo costume, in a way that’ll have you humming one-liners for days. An underrated gem.
Smart, sharp, and wildly original.
