Golden Gay Time

Are you gay? With disposable income? We can help!

Golden Gay Time is a side splitting hour of stand up comedy featuring Courtney Maldo, Charlie Fern and their favourite queer comics.

Summers on! Heat’s up! Come get the queer giggles. We’re holding space for the funniest jokes.  Not sure which comedy at fringe won’t include slurs? Come to our show - now 99% homophobia free. Also suitable for vegans.

Voted 2026 queer line up show most likely to get sued by an ice cream company. A show so fruity we got legal advice!

We have group discounts so bring your whole polycule. This non-hierarchical ethically sourced comedy will get you laughing out proud.

Put down your crochet, leave your dog at home and come have a craft beer with us. It is sure to be a Golden Gay Time!
