Cape Town International Comedy Festival 2007

2007 Cape Town International Comedy Festival one of the best events in Cape Town in September


Welcome to the 11th Cape Town International Comedy Festival!

For over a decade the Cape Town International Comedy Festival has put Cape Town on the entertainment map of the world with Africa’s largest and funniest comedy festival.

This year the Comedy Festival once again innovates, engages and entertains the Mother City and incorporates a number of unique features that makes our festival ‘international’ in the true sense of the word.

With six separate programmes the event endeavoured to cater for everyone’s taste – whether you enjoy your comedy on stage, on the screen, or even on the street!

As usual the Cape Town International Comedy Festival features the more ‘family-friendly’ Main Arena programme in the Baxter Theatre, while the more risqué Danger Zone – a perennial audience favourite – runs concurrently at the Baxter Concert Hall.

The 2007 the Cape Town Comedy Festival sees the launch of an exciting Afrikaans comedy programme at the Artscape Theatre called Bek-Lash which showcases the diversity of Afrikaans comic talent in SA.

An innovative addition to this year’s Cape Town International Comedy Festival programme is the inclusion of comedy on celluloid as comedy lovers will now be treated to the best international comedy short films at a mini-film festival at the Labia Theatre in Kloof Street.

Continuing a recent tradition, a host of the world’s top street performers will once again amaze and amuse Capetonians at a number of sites in, and around, the Mother City.

The Late Show of the festival will be staged at the popular Bang Bang Club in the Cape Town city centre. This riot of edgy and fast-paced local and international acts is destined to become a Cape Town Comedy Festival favourite.

The Best of the Fest remains in its usual Sunday evening slots and allows patrons the chance to see a cross-section of the most popular acts from across the festival spectrum, every Sunday for the festival’s duration.

Join the Cape Town International Comedy Festival at the Baxter, Artscape and/or the Bang Bang Club this September - Cape Town looks forward to putting a smile on your face!
