The MECC presents Always Was, Always Will Be… Funny
Highlights
- Experience 70 minutes of non-stop laughter with Dane, one of Australia’s most beloved comedians.
- Enjoy a vibrant atmosphere at Mackay's premier venue, complete with bar and café facilities.
- Gather friends for a night of humour and heart at 258 Alfred Street, Mackay.
- Relish in the rich tradition of Australian comedy, where every joke echoes 60,000 years of storytelling.
Get ready for a night of guaranteed laughs with one of Australia’s funniest and most loveable comedians.
Dane comes from a long line of funny buggers. A wisecracking Dad, a cleverly cutting Mum, hilarious grandparents, and generations of jokers, pranksters and yarnspinners.
Now Dane is here putting the ‘rad’ into ‘traditional’. He always was, always will be…funny. For 60,000 years of belly-laughs, book now.
Arguably Wagga Wagga’s finest export, Dane has made countless TV appearances including the Melbourne International Comedy Festival Gala, Have You Been Paying Attention?, Guy Montgomery’s Guy Mont-Spelling Bee, Wil Anderson’s Question Everything, The Hundred with Andy Lee, SBS’s Celebrity Letters & Numbers, and even on the big screen in zombie movie Residence and rom-com The Merger.
