What to Expect:

Themed Nights:

Step into a world of tempting delight,
Where saints and sinners mix all night.
Inspired by “Vicars and Tarts” of old,
This party dares you to be bold.

Will you wear a halo, pure and bright,
Or tempt with lace in the moonlit night?
Angels, nuns, with robes divine,
Tease the dark side, where sinners shine.

Leather, corsets, wicked glee,
This is the place for fantasy.
Virtue and vice in one embrace,
A night of pleasure, thrill, and grace.

So choose your side—or mix the two,
“Saints and Sinners” is calling you!

Live, Love, Laugh is our motto, and when it comes to the laughter part, we don’t mess around.

Saturday night’s comedy show was one of the standout highlights of 2024, leaving everyone in stitches, and we’re thrilled to take on the challenge of making 2025’s show even more spectacular.

As an adult camp, we fully embrace adult humour, delivered by master performers who excel at saying the things we’re all secretly thinking. Expect a night of bold, unapologetic comedy that will have you laughing until your sides hurt.

So, gear up for some eye-watering, face-aching, foot-stamping hilarity—because we’re bringing the laughs like never before!
