Now in its 9th year The RAW stand-up comedy competition invites up-and-coming comedians from the whole Canterbury region to try and impress the audience with their wit and one liners for a chance to be crowned funniest in Ōtautahi Christchurch.

With that under their belt they can go north and represent the South Island at the national finals in Auckland to become the new face of NZ comedy and earn tens of dollars a year.
