Celebrating our pride and joy.

 The magnificent Lesbian Comedy Gala is back for its third year!  A night of hilarious frivolity, with Australia’s finest & funniest gals teaming up to tickle your gay jeans!

Bar & Food 

Check out the menu at Angela’s Kitchen: a pop-up Greek & Spanish café that will tempt your taste buds. Visit our funky bar with a great selection of hot and cold drinks. We will be popping those corks all night! So come early, secure your seats, have a bite to eat, grab a drink and catch up with friends and maybe speed date as well. The pre-show entertainment is by one our own living treasures, Chris Falk. (singer/composer – 4 albums & a legend of our local music scene)
