Library Up Late x Melbourne International Comedy Festival

Library Up Late returns as part of Melbourne International Comedy Festival, transforming State Library Victoria into the ultimate late-night comedy club.

Grab a drink and witness some of Melbourne’s top comics take to stage, including performances by Annie Boyle, David O'Doherty, Chris Nguyen and Robyn Reynolds, Hot Department, Sashi Perera, Sammy J, and Takashi Wakasugi, hosted by Felicity Ward. From rooms packed with hilarious comedy sets to roving comedic performances under the iconic Dome, there’s no better place to celebrate the festival’s 40th year than at the Library.

Whether it’s Celine Dion’s My Heart Will Go On or Olivia Rodrigo's drivers license, swap the hairbrush for a mic and belt heartbreak anthems at the Lonely Hearts Karaoke Club, hosted by Geraldine Quinn.

Throughout the night, the La Trobe Reading Room will become the ultimate dancefloor under the Dome with roving performances and music from DJ Gavin Campbell and DJ Gaff E.
