About this event

This is the true story of how Tess Birch inadvertently started and ran a music festival five times. 

From finding a site by door-knocking at remote country properties, to tips for cleaning portaloos at 3am. With tales of tracking down missing vegan food truck workers, to keeping the show going during an Omicron outbreak. Through bushfires and freak storms, this is the essential guide for anyone who thinks festivals are fun.

Following a sellout debut at the 2024 Melbourne International Comedy Festival, the show's WA premiere at FRINGE WORLD invites you to don your festival shirt, grab your doof stick and come along on a journey of how NOT to run a music festival. 

“Brilliant” ★★★★ The Age, 2024

Presented by:
Tess Birch

Tess Birch is the first ever lawyer to become a comedian.

The “effortlessly ebullient” comedian performs at comedy rooms and festivals around Australia and she is also a regular storyteller at The Moth, among other storytelling events.

Tess' sold-out 2024 Melbourne International Comedy Festival show ‘How Not To Run A Music Festival’ received 4 stars from The Age and tells the true story of how she started and ran a music festival 5 times.

Currently based in Melbourne, Tess is delighted to be performing the show in Perth, her "Grandmotherland", where she lived in 2021 and frequently returns to be both a lawyer and a comedian.
