Rire & Gala
Rire & Gala — Clean, tailored stand-up for weddings and galas
About Rire & Gala
Rire & Gala is based in Johannesburg and has 6 years of experience with weddings, galas and corporate events. Each set is written for the room: a short call with the hosts gives the stories, the names and the lines not to cross, so the jokes land with every generation at the table.
Every booking starts with a call about your date, your guests and your budget, and a written, itemised quote follows within 48 hours. Prices start from 7,200 ZAR.
We work in English. Popular dates go months ahead, so it is worth asking early; sending a request is free.

Frequently asked
Can you keep it clean?
Yes. Every set is clean by default; we agree on any topic to avoid during the prep call.
Do you perform in French and English?
Yes, and we can switch between the two in the same set for mixed audiences.
Do you work outside Johannesburg?
Yes. Within 150 km there is no travel fee; further away we add travel to the quote.
