Triple j breakfast host and former Raw Comedy finalist Matt Okine will MC this year’s NSW State Final of the event that uncovers the best comedic talent in the nation.

After ten heats and the semi-finals held across the state, NSW’s most promising young comedians will make their way to Moore Park for a two-hour extravaganza. The winner will be announced at the end of the show, and go on to compete in the National Grand Final, for which top prize includes a trip to perform at the famous Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

The second NSW Semi-Final will be held at the Comedy Store on Tuesday March 10. Matt Okine hosts the State Final at the same venue on Tuesday March 17.
