“Reaching our fifth year is a fantastic milestone for WA Comedy Week,” said Festival Director Ronan Freeburn.

“What began as an idea to celebrate Western Australian comedy has grown into a festival that brings together performers, venues, local businesses and audiences from across the state. We’re proud to be celebrating five years of WA Comedy Week with 11 shows across six fantastic venues in Subiaco.”

City of Subiaco Mayor David McMullen said, “This year the City celebrates five years of support for WA Comedy Week.

Once again, we welcome audiences to experience everything Subiaco has to offer. Enjoy a laugh, and also make the most of Subiaco’s vibrant bars and restaurants before or after the show.”

WA Comedy Week is presented by See Subiaco, a City of Subiaco initiative.
