Jimeoin, Blake Pavey and Mandy Nolan Headline Show To Raise Money for Koala Homes

Get ready to ROFL as comedy legends Jimeoin, Blake Pavey and Mandy Nolan join forces to host Koala Roast, a one-off comedy night to raise funds for Bangalow Koalas to plant more trees to create koala habitat.

The event will be an unforgettable evening of laughter, with each performer bringing their unique style and banter to help Bangalow Koalas reach its target of planting 500,000 trees by 2025. 300,000 trees have already been planted to create a wildlife corridor across the Northern Rivers of NSW. Jimeoin, Blake and Mandy all share a passion for environmental conservation and love for our furry friends, with each performer donating their time to help.

Blake Pavey is a talented comedian known for his wit and resilience, turning his terminal illness into a source of laughter with nearly a million followers on Tik Tok. “Koalas are like the face of Australia so it’s key we protect these iconic little fellas. Combining comedy with conservation is a win-win. Let’s have a few laughs to encourage everyone to do what they can to help.”

Internationally acclaimed comedian known for his off-beat humour and hilarious take on everyday life, Jimeoin is raring to go, “Laughter is universal and has the power to bring people together to create positive change. I can’t wait to have a bit of a craic and team up with Blake and Mandy to help raise money and ensure my kids and generations to come can enjoy these animals in their natural habitat.”

Mandy Nolan, a beloved Northern Rivers comedian and Greens candidate said, “I’m excited to share a stage with these legends. I hope we can combine our talents to protect Koalas and their habitat while delivering the laughs. Mandy will introduce her protege, Alexandra Hudson to the stage. Alexandra’s comedy is about her experiences as a disabled woman and her observations about the mostly foreign non-disabled world she lives in.

ALL money raised from Koala Roast will go directly to Bangalow Koalas to help save these much loved animals from the brink of extinction.

Tickets are $45 and are available at www. bangalowkoalas.com.au/
