First Nations Headliners


First Nations Headliners is a powerhouse comedy showcase spotlighting the sharpest First Nations comics from across the country. Each performer brings their own voice, perspective and punchlines to the stage, weaving cultural pride with laugh‑out‑loud storytelling. This lineup celebrates artists who are not only headlining rooms but also redefining the comedy scene with fresh energy and fearless humour. Audiences can expect a night of boundary‑pushing sets, quick wit and unforgettable characters, as rising stars deliver routines that balance tradition, resilience and contemporary bite.

More than just entertainment, this showcase is a cultural moment, a chance to see First Nations talent leading from the front, commanding the spotlight and proving that comedy is a powerful tool for connection and truth. With each headliner on the rise, First Nations Headliners is both a celebration of today’s trailblazers and a glimpse into the future of Australian comedy.
