Raw Comedy Quest - Whanganui

The Raw Comedy Quest is back for 2023! The search is on for the funniest new comedian in Aotearoa, and we reckon that person is right here, in Whanganui! (Or Taranaki, Manawatū, Hawkes Bay... We're hedging our bets a little)

12 people will eventually battle it out for the Central Region crown, with the winner and the runner up advancing to the Wellington finals. The top two performers are flown to Auckland to compete in the National Raw Comedy Quest Final in October!

With over $2000 in prize money and national coverage, the Raw Comedy Quest can be the stepping stone to a career in comedy.

Previous winners from our region include Auntie Lianne, Kajun Brooking and Callum Wagstaff!

To enter all you need is 6 minutes of original material and the guts to get up on stage. Send us an email at contact@diycomedynz.com and we'll send you an entry form 🙂

Tickets to the heats are $15 from KiwiTicket! Door sales on the evening are $20.
