Photo of Stian Macshane Stian Macshane "Macshane was a star for our corporate event offering freestyle rapping to guests on entrance at our Superbowl themed awards night. He matched the brief perfectly, had great comedic timing and was the perfect hype man to start guests journey on the night. Look forward to working with him again." Based in Perth, Western Australia, Australia (5,173 miles from Pretoria) 8th October 2026 Terence Smith - Events Manager - Known Associates - Autoleague Championship Photo of High-Energy Event Host & Experience Design High-Energy Event Host & Experience Design "Shake has the ability to will you into a world of laughter. Not only is his comedic self based on what he says, it is also how he says it. Bravo to an excellent performance that allows me to escape my reality, with jokes that are relatable. His various accents and his ability to sing adds to the flavour of the performance. Ngà Mihi from New Zealand."

Hiring stand-up comedians suits a wide range of events including corporate events, private parties, charity fundraisers, awards dinners, pre-wedding parties and dedicated comedy nights. Stand-up comedy works well as a main entertainment feature or an after-dinner act.

Most stand-up comedians perform sets lasting between 20 and 60 minutes, depending on the event format and whether they are the headline act. Some comedians also offer MC and hosting services. Gig Heaven recommends discussing the ideal set length for your event.
