Adelaide's Great Big Comedy Picnic
A smorgasbord of stand-up comedy amusement for a weekend afternoon.
The funniest late lunch (or early dinner) party date at the Fringe returns after sell-out shows at Fringe 2025, with a different line-up at each show which features some of the freshest and funniest comedy headliners around, plus some very special guests from around the world of comedy who'll be serving up everything from your ever-reliable sausage roll (in the aisles) to your more sophisticated comedy quiche.
In the shaded outdoor area of Gluttony’s Piglet, grab a seat or bring your picnic blanket to enjoy this delightful afternoon where you can be sure the comics will be raisin’ the roof (of the tent) and leaving you wonton more - for five dates only!
An Edinburgh Fringe institution.... from many years ago.
