Ticket Protection

The Melbourne International Comedy Festival has been granted major event status to protect Victorians from ticket scalpers. Resellers who inflate the price of major event tickets by more than 10 per cent face fines of between $800 and $480,000.

Melbourne International Comedy Festival acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands upon which we work and live. We acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' spirit, imagination and rich history of storytelling and humour that is an inspiration to all Australians.
