COMEDY ROAST BATTLE! (Semi-Finals): By Tongue in Cheek Comedy

Thursday 2. April at 20:30 - 22:30

Má Lingua, Lisboa

🔥 Comedy Roast Battle – Semi-Finals (Lisbon’s First Ever!) 🔥

Lisbon is getting its first-ever Comedy Roast Battle tournament, and this is the burn comedy Wild West: The Semi-Finals.

This is event is in English. It's suitable for ages 17+.

WHAT IS A ROAST BATTLE?
A Roast Battle is a comedy tournament where comedians face-off to deliver their best roast jokes about each other.

  • Comics compete two at a time and take turns dishing out expertly targeted (and hilarious) insults aimed at their sparring partner.

  • Out of each pair, one comedian wins--and advances to the next stage--and one limps away, probably holding back tears.

Expect perfectly crafted insults, brutally hilarious take-downs, and exacting zingers that leave their opponents sizzling. Nothing is off limits except physical violence.

HOW IT WORKS
The Tongue in Cheek Comedy Roast Battle happens over two dates. A separate ticket is needed for each date you want to attend.

  1. April 2 (the semi-finals) - 8 comedians and

  2. April 16 (the finals) - 4 Comedians + the winner's battle!

  • Half of the comedians are eliminated in the first round (so long, suckas). The other half move on to the finals.

For the Semi-Finals, 8 comedians will compete in a series of one-on-one battles. In each match, the comedians trade insults for a few rounds, and you, the audience, decides who moves on to the Finals.

Think of it as stand-up comedy meets competitive trash talk. And you're at the steering wheel.

Expect:
🔥 Savage jokes
🔥 Big laughs
🔥 Shocking burns
🔥 Some very hurt feelings (hopefully)

WHY DO I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT?
Trust us. It's worth it. This event is extremely popular and the venue has a limited capacity. Tickets guarantee your spot. Plus, this special show requires a ton of work from comedians and organizers and we believe their work should be compensated.

You're going to love it.

WILL I GET ROASTED? WILL THERE BE AN AUDIENCE ROAST?
No. The audience just watches the roast and votes on the winners. Don't worry--You will not get roasted by comedians and you won't have to roast anyone.

WHY IS THIS SPECIAL?
A Roast Battle is really fun because it highlights a comedian's talent, creativity, and hilarious brutality––all while making the audience laugh.

This is the first multi-stage Roast Battle event in Lisbon, so come see it from the beginning and help decide who makes it to the Finals.

BUT, ISN'T A ROAST BATTLE MEAN?
Yes, and that's the point. All comedians volunteer for this show. Although some of these jokes dig deeeeeeep, it's all in good fun. Our comedians love this style of comedy and relish the opportunity to showcase their brutal creativity. :)
