SURBLIBOR - Hosted by Rhys Mathewson

Drop your buffs, it’s a comedy showdown like no other as 10 of the country’s best comedians compete in a show that is legally speaking, not Survivor.

3 - 3.5 hours with a 20 minute interval
Sat 27 May 2023

Drop your buffs, it’s a comedy showdown like no other as 10 of the country’s best comedians compete in a show that is legally speaking, not Survivor.

There’ll be challenges, hidden immunity idols, backstabs and blindsides and it’s all hosted by comedian and Probst superfan Rhys Mathewson.

What are they playing for? The title of sole Surblibor, and a prize that will leave everyone’s jaws on the floor.

If you love Survivor, you’d be crazy to miss out on this homage to the greatest TV show ever made. This one-off event is sure to be the talk of the festival.

Outwit. Outplay. Outlaugh.

You obviously have good taste. Check out the full line up in the 2023 NZ International Comedy Festival with Best Foods Mayo from 5 – 28 May.
