The UK-born comedian is hitting both major cities and regional areas, including a stint at the 2025 Adelaide Fringe where Noble has locked in a whopping 27 shows.

Beginning his stand-up comedy career at the age of 15, Ross Noble quickly rose to prominence in the early 00s thanks to his stream-of-consciousness style of comedy that resonated with fans.

Marrying an Aussie and moving to Australia, Noble soon began popping up on TV and radio shows such as Good News Week, Thank God You’re Here, Would I Lie To You? Australia, Spicks and Specks and more, cementing his status as one of our favs.
