The festival will take place at the Montecasino from July 22nd to 31st.
Lovers of stand-up may be eager to book cheap flights to Johannesburg to attend the city’s Nando’s Comedy Festival.
Some of the world’s top comics are set to appear at the event, including Mark Eddie, Michael Loftus and Mark Curry, best known for his role in hit children’s TV show Hangin’ With Mr Cooper.
Among the other acts on the bill are Theo Von and Ndumiso Lindi, widely regarded as one of the top black comedians in South Africa thanks to his honest portrayal of everyday life.
The event, which is heading to Johannesburg for the fourth time, is scheduled to run from July 22nd to 31st. Shows will take place at 20:00 local time every evening, apart from the final two nights when proceedings will kick off at 18:00.
On July 30th, a special late-night show has been organised, with acts set to take the stage from 21:00.
All performances will be held at the Montecasino’s Teatro venue.
