Get on your bike for festival funMark Holder-Keeping and Steve Vassello are looking forward to performing on the rock stage at the north end of Kendalls

Having just given us the KISS Arts Festival, and a month long season of entertainment at The Kazador, Tamara Campbell and Dave Evans of Laughter House Entertainment could be forgiven for putting their feet up for a well earned rest.

 

Instead, with funding from the NSW Office of Sport, they are presenting us with our next opportunity to enjoy ourselves.


 

“Bike the Comedy Kiama is the perfect combo of outdoors, culture, comedy, play, natural beauty, cycling and family fun,” says Tamara.

 

“Get on your bike – literally – and be entertained for free against the gorgeous Kiama coastal backdrop.

 

“You will experience music on a rock stage, laugh your butt off comedy, Ballet on Unicycles, unbelievable feats of physical prowess and even be able to try some circus yourself.

 

“Grab the kids or make it a date with friends and family. Enjoy the outdoors, exercising and culture all mixed together.”


Our advice? Book into a slot now so you don't miss out.


The event was previously held in Wollongong


How does it work?

From 9am-1.30pm, on Sunday 3 July, a group of up to 50 cyclists will leave The Hub at Black Beach every 30 minutes.

 

They will move via shared pathways to Bonaira Reserve and back again, enjoying five performances on route in different natural settings.


 

“We are using nature as a stage and a backdrop,” says Dave.

 

“Bring your wheels and be part of the fun – bookings are essential and free so don’t delay as spots are filling up fast.”


 

After the ride, back at the Hub on Black Beach, there will be healthy food options, music and a circus play area to continue the festival vibe.

 

“Bike the Comedy Kiama will be fun for all the family, as long as you can ride a bike for 8km over a three hour period, with lots of stops to engage you with amazing entertainment,” says Tamara.

 

There are limited places with groups of cyclists kept small and only 9 timeslots across the day. Register for free at www.trybooking.com/events/landing/914340
