Monthly laughs are back, to be sure!

After a strange, wonderful and jam-packed festival season, Perth's original comedy club returns with your monthly lol-fest so you can get a fix of fringe fun all year round.

St Patrick’s Day Dave Callan leads a night of shenanigans and surprises featuring the homecomings of self-described "professional idiot" and star of TV & radio Luke Ryan (Nickelodeon, Nova, National Geographic, Mix 94.5) and Melbourne Comedy Festival Golden Gibbo award nominee Fran Middleton..

See also the comic stylings of QLD podcaster and former heavy metal frontman dubbed the "Bipolar Rock n' Rolla" Hayden Douglas and Perth rising star Miss Samia, nominated WA Comedy's Best Newcomer 2020, plus more TBA.

Even with 15% more capacity, seating remains strictly limited - at unreserved tables of 4 for more personal space.

Save on your night out with a Dinner & Show deal (bookings online only), now available for singles and duos. Meals are served in the main bar adjacent to the comedy room prior to show start time.

BRB... Gone Fringe-ing.

On the back of a sold out Preview, our summer of laughs continues with our 3rd Fringe season at The Shoe, featuring 20 shows in 23 days.

60 top homegrown and guest comedians (who made it in or got ‘trapped’ here in 2020) - from London to Tokyo and Adelaide to Exmouth - bring us world premieres and encore hit seasons from the broad church of comedy, including sketch, musical, beatbox, storytelling, interactive gaming, live podcasting, queer comedy and pure stand-up, for Gen Zs to boomers.

Still with strictly limited capacity, many shows are already selling out, so hit up FRINGE WORLD soon to view our full program and join us for a whale of a time :D

FRINGE WORLD season, 15 Jan - 14 Feb
The Shoe Bar, Yagan Square, Perth
Tickets from FRINGE WORLD.

Festival summer begins with a banger

Let a selection of WA's top fringe comedians (and special guests) whet your FRINGE WORLD appetite, giving you a taste of their best from the upcoming fest.

Direct from SA, world renowned comedic storyteller Jon Bennett hosts 2020's WA Comedian of the Year (joint winner) Andrew Wolfe with Perth's fave Canadian and 2020 Comedy Zone selection Tor Snyder, plus the long-awaited return of beat-boxing, live-looping Ross Vegas.

Japan's fastest rising comedy export (calling Perth home since March), Takashi Wakasugi also features, supported by local faves Alissia Marsh 'King of the Lesbians', one-liner expert David Tuffley, rising star Zeppo, and Perth's adopted Liverpudlian John Pinno.

If you're overwhelmed by festival choices, this 2 hour value mix of hand-picked acts promises comedy to tickle all tastes.. And, every online ticket puts you in the draw to WIN a $50 voucher from our host venue.

During Fringe, the lols continue weekly with our special '9 at 9' line-ups (different acts revealed every week on Facebook and Instagram) featuring more of the fest's best homegrown & guest stars.

Current regulations mean seating remains at a strictly limited capacity, at unreserved tables of 4 to offer increased personal space. Bookings highly recommended. Door sales (only if not sold out prior) from 7:15pm. Meals available in the main bar before showtime.
