Get ready to groan! Wits have been sharpened, wea-puns will be wielded, funny bones may well be broken. Will our competitors pun-ble under the pressure?!

After sold-out and truly cringe-worthy shows across the country, Pun Battle is back in Tāmaki. Come along and see the city's smartest alecks, wordiest nerds and biggest pun-ks, punslingers and pun-dits battle it out in an intense and hilarious head-to-head pun-off. With a total of over $2000 (!) cash prize money on the line, you could say that the stakes are pun-ishing.

Created and hosted by the notorious Hugo Grrrl, and featuring an all-star cast of truly incorrigible cunning linguists:
- Rhiannon McCall (Billy T Nominee 2024, presenter and comedian)
- Bailey Poching (As seen on 7 Days, Kid Sister, Raised by Refugees)
- Steven Lyons (Audience warm-up guy for Taskmaster NZ and 7 Days)
- Penny Ashton (Poet, MC, actor, Austen-enthusiast)
- Jess Karamjeet (Award-winning comedian and screenwriter)
- Rebecca Mary Gwendolon (Improv legend from Late Night Knife Fight and Bullrush)
- Gareth Blackler (Dork, dingus, founder of Casual Date Night)
- Ella Brookhammer (Show-off, pun slut, menace)
Refereed by the ravishing Blaise Clotworthy
Guest Judged by Joel Wood (NZ Comedy Fest)

It's a rap battle for dorks, a competitive dad-joke show, it's an unmissable night of 'comedy'. Get your tickets now. It's going to be utter pundemonium.
