What’s Happening?
UK expat and comedy talent Daniel Holt is heading to Toowoomba for one night only with his hit show Quintessentially Brit(ish)! on Saturday, 26 April 2025 at The Irish Club Hotel. The show kicks off at 8:00pm, with doors opening at 7:30pm. After a sold-out run across Australia, Holt now brings his hilarious take on life down under to the Garden City.
Why It Matters
Fresh from national success, Daniel Holt offers a unique perspective on Aussie life, having made the move from England seven years ago. His sharp wit and cheeky tales of fruit-picking, backpacking, and falling in love with a Brisbane local have already captured hearts in cities from Melbourne to the Sunshine Coast. This solo debut in Toowoomba is set to bring laughter and fresh perspective to the local entertainment scene.
Local Impact
Holt’s show appeals to a broad audience—from expats and travellers to locals who enjoy a clever twist on everyday Aussie life. With its intimate setting at the Irish Club Hotel, Quintessentially Brit(ish)! adds a refreshing edge to Toowoomba’s cultural calendar.

Zoom In
“This Pom will leave you in stitches! With stories you won’t forget,” said one fan, known only as Tradie in the RSL Pokies. Another, Farmer Bill from QLD, labelled him “The funniest fruit picker.” From backpacking through rural Queensland to running a comedy room in Brisbane, Holt’s journey is hilariously relatable, particularly to those who’ve had their own “start-from-scratch” stories in Australia.
Zoom Out
Daniel’s show is not just for expats. It resonates with Aussies who enjoy classic British humour and relatable tales of adjusting to life in a new country. The sold-out tour success shows the appetite for multicultural comedy content is stronger than ever in regional and metro communities alike.
