South African comedy fanatics have more reason to laugh with the lineup of comedians, featuring the following funny people:

Tshepo Sethosa and Hilda Sista H, who co-own Siblings Comedy, hail from Ekurhuleni and look forward to bringing their laughs to home audiences at Carnival City.

His tongue-in-cheek delivery has audiences in stitches.

Smowkey Nyembe, real name is Mbongiseni Nyembe, comes from Soweto where he started his comedy career in 2010 doing Premium Comedy Nyts at Ozone Pub. Having headlined Zulu and Xhosa comedy shows, he is a must-see with his raw kasi-style snobbish comedy.

Tumi Stopnonsons, known as Jumaima, was born in Diepkloof and from sleeping on the streets has become one of South Africa’s top comedians with a long list of stage achievements. He has dubbed his style of comedy as ‘new trend’ and gives a refreshing take on humour.

Last but not least, Bra Thabiso, completes the lineup as a talented vernac. comedian who has shared the stage with the likes of Trevor Gumbi and Roni Modimola.
