From humble beginnings performing at a Las Vegas coffee shop to selling out the likes of Radio City Music Hall and The Forum, Jo Koy’s rise has been nothing short of epic. Known for weaving hilarious tales from his Filipino-American upbringing, Koy’s comedy connects across generations and cultures, and clearly, it’s resonating.
He’s smashed records at venues like the Mall of Asia Arena in Manila and the Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai, while Australian fans might remember his sold-out ICC Theatre show in Sydney. Melbourne, get ready for your turn.
Beyond the mic, Koy starred in Universal Pictures’ Easter Sunday — a family comedy inspired by his own life — and has four Netflix specials under his belt. His 2019 stand-up album Live From Seattle topped the Billboard comedy charts, and his memoir earned rave reviews. Not to mention, he was crowned Stand-Up Comedian of the Year at Montreal’s prestigious Just For Laughs festival.
Whether you’ve laughed through his Netflix specials or seen him live before, Jo Koy’s 2025 Melbourne show promises the kind of high-energy, laugh-out-loud night only he can deliver.
