Direct from the NZ International Comedyfest
An Englishman, a Scotsman and an Irishman are coming to Palmerston North, New Plymouth and Hamilton.

It’s The INTERNATIONAL COMEDY ALLSTARS, a taste of the world class comedy that the annual Festival offers fans throughout May.

Look out for the Honourable TOM HOUGHTON (@HonourableTom) - star of Netflix’s ‘The Circle’, former resident of The Tower of London and viral social media sensation.
“This unexpected tour de force warrants a 21-gun salute“★★★★ The Daily Telegraph

He is joined by ROSCO McCLELLAND, (@roscomclelland) - Glasgow’s finest, winner of the Scottish Comedian of the Year Award and shortlisted for the Sir Billy Connolly Spirit of Glasgow award in 2024 and 2025.
"A bemused cultural commentator with a renegade outlaw streak’"★★★★ The Scotsman

The show will be hosted by our very own Kiwi Irishman, ALAN McELROY, (@alanmcelroy) originally from Dublin before escaping to New Zealand where he now regularly headlines shows at The Classic Comedy Club and beyond.

The producer behind the show, Scott Blanks who is also the director of The Classic Comedy Club in Auckland is very excited about, once again, bringing the International comedians to venues beyond Auckland and Wellington. “It was a regular tour prior to the Covid years providing international comedians with a chance to see more of New Zealand so it’s about time we got back to ‘funny business as usual’ at the other great venues available around the country”.
