Feminists are Funny 2026

Our most iconic night of the year is back…

Join us for an evening of comedy, community, and a touch of magic as we raise vital funds for Auckland Women’s Centre.

The brilliant Michèle A’Court (ONZM) returns as host, bringing together a wickedly funny lineup of comedians guaranteed to keep you laughing (or cackling!) all night long. Start planning your table, gather your friends (aka your coven), and join us at The Classic Comedy Club for our biggest fundraiser of the year.

This year’s dress up theme is “Witch, please!” — a playful acknowledgement to the history of women and marginalised communities being judged or silenced for who they are, and a celebration of the power, resilience, and collective energy that continues to drive the feminist movement forward. Channel it your own way — we can’t wait to see what you conjure up.

🖤 Dress-up encouraged, with prizes on the night

🖤 A silent auction featuring generously donated items from across Tāmaki Makaurau

🖤 Capture the moment in the Pixel Photo Booth – get there early to get your group shots!

🖤 Ticket price includes delicious nibbles thanks to Ripe Deli!

We can’t wait to see you there for a night of laughter, connection, and mischief!

Gather your coven: our tickets are sold by the table. This year, we’re offering prices on a sliding scale, that end up costing between $85 and $110 per member. You are invited to choose a price that suits you, between the following:

Table for 2: From $170
Table for 4: From $340
Table for 6: From $510
Table for 10: From $850

Meet your host

The wonderful, fabulous Michèle A’Court (ONZM) is a stand-up comedian, writer, actor and event MC / kaiwhakataki. We remain incredibly stoked, chuffed and otherwise excited that she is an incredible friend to the Women’s Centre – and most importantly, she’s HILARIOUS (and knows how to pick an exceptional line-up!)
