In its 25th year, the roadshow makes sure non-Melbourne audiences don’t miss out on the belly laughs, bringing great acts to the rest of Australia and parts of Asia.

Echuca Paramount general manager Bec Lillico said tickets to the event had always been highly sought-after in the past.

“Normally there’s a mixture of up-and-coming comedians and established acts, so we don’t really know what we’re expecting on the day but you’re in for a surprise,” she said.

The comedians performing in the roadshow all come hot off the stage in Melbourne and ready to entertain.

The show is on Saturday, May 13 at 7.30pm at Echuca Paramount, 392 High St, Echuca.

The Melbourne International Comedy Festival has run annually since 1987, shining a light on local stars, up-and-comers and the biggest acts from overseas.

This year the festival runs from March 29 to April 23, with the roadshow kicking off straight after.
