SUMMARY:White Dad Brown Dad Browner Dad | A stand-up comedy show
DESCRIPTION:Three dads. Nine Children. Three cultures. Forget wholesome family comedy. White Dad\, Brown Dad & Browner Dad is what happens when three dudes with completely different cultural backgrounds realise they’ve all made the same catastrophic mistake: \nThey had kids. \n$20 GA seats are limited\, but this ain’t a parenting seminar. It’s three fathers comparing notes on who’s screwed up their kids the least. Hear all about it Saturday December 12th at the Hop House in TGA CBD. Because underneath all the cultural differences\, they’re united by one thing: They love their kids\, they just occasionally wish they’d shut the F up. \nFeaturing BOP local legends: \nCJ Pierson
- Half American\, half Kiwi\, and father of two little girls. CJ grew up thinking America had the world’s worst parenting advice\, only to move to New Zealand and discover kiwis just hide their bad parenting behind a relaxed accent. Oh and he dropped one of them… \nShady Tupu
- The Hori with a Story. Father of four. He’s got stories about growing up Māori\, raising a family\, dealing with relatives\, surviving modern parenting and making decisions that would probably have been better if nobody had been sober. \nJason Chand
- Half Indian\, half Kiwi\, father of three. Jason grew up torn between two cultures and eventually settled on the white half\, but melanin didn’t wash out so he married a white woman and boy are those kids cute. \nHop House — Tauranga\nSaturday\, December 12th\n7:30 PM Show 7p doors\n$20 advance on here\n$25 door (if available) \nWARNING: R18 – Bring your friends. Bring your partner. Bring your unresolved childhood issues. Just don’t bring the kids. \nFacebook Event

SUMMARY:Urzila Carlson - Fatty On a Yacht
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Live Nation\nUrzila Carlson\, Aotearoa’s fan-favourite comedian\, returns to Tauranga in 2026 with even more understated punchlines and her signature deadpan delivery in the brand-new show\, Fatty On a Yacht. \nEver felt like you don’t belong? Like everyone else got the memo — and you turned up in the wrong outfit\, on the wrong day\, on the wrong yacht? \nCarlson’s new show\, Fatty On a Yacht\, is for anyone who’s ever tried to squeeze into a space — physical or social — and thought\, “This can’t be right”. \nIt’s about not fitting in\, standing out\, and laughing about it anyway. \nEffortlessly likeable… stream of belly-laughs. – The Age\, Melbourne. \nCarlson’s a master of the form. Audiences across New Zealand have known it for years and turned out in droves in recognition of that. Now\, it’s the world’s turn. – The Spinoff NZ. \nFind out more
