Failing in Love is the city’s Valentine’s-night stand-up comedy show for anyone who’s ever flirted badly, texted too much, ghosted someone (or been ghosted), or simply realised that modern dating is a contact sport. Performed in English, it turns romance into a punchline. Not in a cynical way, but in a “thank god it wasn’t just me” way.

So what’s in store? A rotating lineup of local and international comedians telling tales of the funny side of dating “wins” and, more often than not, spectacular fails. Expect stories about awkward first dates, app fatigue, mixed signals and plot twists that deserve their own soundtrack.

Whether you’re single, coupled up, or “it’s complicated”, this is a perfect alternative to candlelit seriousness. It’s a night to laugh at the chaos, feel weirdly seen, and leave a little lighter than you arrived. We’ll see you there.
