Melbourne International Comedy Festival is starting to take shape as a handful of world-class acts sign on for the event.

Leading the first international announcement for next year’s event is Iceland's Ari Eldjárn, who returns after winning over audiences at the 2018 edition of the festival.

The new batch of shows will take place across March and April, with Eldjárn joined by British musical duo Flo & Joan, Scottish powerhouse Larry Dean and UK favourites Mark Watson, James Veitch and Darren Harriott.
