If your idea of the perfect night out includes belly laughs, bold snacks, and a break from reality, then clear your calendar for Friday 17 and Saturday 18 October 2025 — because Whackhead’s All Star Comedy Jam is rolling into Grand Arena, GrandWest, and it’s bringing the big guns.
Hosted by Darren “Whackhead” Simpson, the king of radio pranks and chaos from Kfm Mornings, this all-star comedy night features five of South Africa’s top comedians on one stage for one unforgettable night of laugh-until-you-cry entertainment.
The lineup is absolutely stacked:
-
Marc Lottering – a certified legend with more characters than a buffet has desserts
-
Schalk Bezuidenhout – moustached mischief-maker and king of quirky
-
Alfred Adriaan – the high-energy rising star who’s been packing out venues nationwide
-
Joey Rasdien – smart, sharp, and always hilariously unpredictable
-
And of course, Whackhead himself, making a rare and highly anticipated return to the stand-up stage
🎟️ Tickets are R250–R450 via Ticketmaster and the laughs start at 8PM sharp (doors open from 7PM).
Now, if you’re coming for the comedy, stay for the food. GrandWest is loaded with pre-show dinner options — think pizza, grills, gourmet burgers, or just a cheeky milkshake and chips combo before the lights go down. Because let’s be honest: a comedy show is always better when your stomach’s full (but not too full, because you will be laughing hard).
Whether you’re a die-hard comedy buff or just need a solid night out with friends, Whackhead’s All Star Comedy Jam is the laugh fix we all need. No politics, no lectures, just jokes — big ones, by the best in the biz.
One stage. One night. Five superstars. And you. Don’t miss it.
