October 15 - 18 • 2026

Get ready to laugh at the inaugural Scary Strangers Comedy Festival! Bringing together some of the sharpest, weirdest and most unforgettable voices in comedy, this brand-new festival celebrates the thrill of the unknown and the joy of a room full of strangers laughing together. Bringing a delightful selection of standup, improv, sketch and musical comedy to the Blue Mountains, thanks to the generous support of Blue Mountains City Council.

Discover your new favourite comedians and beautifully unhinged characters at the festival that proves strangers aren't so scary after all (in the right context).
