BallaRatCat Comedy has been serving up laughs in Ballarat since 2013.

This year BallaRatCat has a new home in an old church, delivering big name comedians with a great atmosphere, high ceilings, and a large organ.

Michael Connell (Australia's Got Talent)

Tarsh Jago (Deadly Funny, Comedy Zone)

James Coburn (@humantabasco)

Takashi Wakasugi (Comedy Festival Gala, Thank God You're Here, Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont-Spelling Bee)

And a special local guest spot.
