Headliner & Host

  • Ben Kochan

    Ben Kochan

    Ben Kochan has been making Sydney audiences laugh for a good few years now. Back in 2019, he landed a spot in the Comedy Zone showcase at the Melbourne Comedy Festival, then immediately sold out his debut solo show "Nice Boy Seeks Kind Audience" at the Sydney Comedy Festival the same year. Not a bad start. Since then he's kept the momentum going, picking up "Best of Fest" at the Sydney Comedy Festival in 2023 and releasing his debut comedy album "Hooley Dooley What a Crowd", which has racked up tens of thousands of streams. His full comedy special "No Coffee No Workee" is also sitting on YouTube right now, free, just waiting for you. On stage, Ben does sharp observational comedy with a genuinely silly streak running underneath it — the kind of set that feels like your funniest mate somehow got really good at this. He's supported Tom Gleeson and Wil Anderson, played Splendour in the Grass and Triple J's Good Az Friday, and somehow still finds time to write for TV (ABC's "Question Everything", "Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont Spelling Bee", Channel Nine's "The Hundred with Andy Lee") and pop up on Comedy Central and ABC Comedy. Co-hosting the podcast "The Quibble Hour" with Concetta Caristo sits on top of all that, as does the moustache. For live shows, Sydney is his home turf — you'll find him popping up regularly around the city, including at Kookaburra's Comedy.

  • Kyle Legacy

    Kyle Legacy

    There is no doubt that an encounter with Kyle Legacy will leave you wiping tears from your eyes for all the right reasons. The comedian’s endearing and eccentric sense of humour never fails to delight fans from any walk of life. The proud scouser is renowned for his distinctive afro and his wide smile, making him a distinctive figure on the comedy circuits. Performing on stage is where Legacy feel most at home. As part of the highly in-demand comedy collective known as ‘Laugh Mob’, it is fair to say that Legacy is a star within the groundbreaking group. Known amongst his peers and his fans as the ‘The Crowd Work King’, the comedian’s passion for live performance is reciprocated by the eager crowds who always end the night clamouring for more. In fact, his brand of humour has reached audiences far and wide, leading him to tour Australia, Canada, the USA, and of course the UK and land spots in some of the biggest festivals going. An example of Legacy’s restless determination to disrupt the world of comedy is his record for the highest number of gigs at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Clearly devoted to the art of performance, Legacy refuses to fade into the background. Moreover, Legacy continues to reach fans through his YouTube videos, and of course his unique cult podcast titled ‘I Want to Meet LeBron James Podcast’. Although Legacy is a truly modern icon with his bold irreverence as documented on his social media platforms, his comedy is as timeless as it is hilarious. Legacy lives for the stage! Born & raised in Liverpool, he now tours the the globe with the popular comedy collective 'Laugh Mob'. More commonly known as 'The crowdwork King', Legacy has been making appearances at every major festival around the world including the world record older for most gigs done at the Edinburgh fringe festival... 230 in 24 days! Other credits include opened for Erik Griffin (Workaholics), performed at the Comedy Store in 3 different countries and Sold Out Edinburgh fringe festival 2017 & Perth fringeworld 2021. "The Lebron James of comedy" 4 1/2 Stars - the Australian times, 2017 “The young Ross Noble” - the funny tonne 2019

    I'm honestly not a big comedy fan, but this show totally surprised me. Way funnier than I expected and I ended up laughing the whole time. So glad I went!
