It is with great regret that Cook's Night Off have to announce the cancellation of Rude Food Comedy Cook-Off. The loss of a major sponsor combined with slower than expected ticket sales has meant that they had to make the reluctant, but necessary decision to cancel the show.

All ticketholders will receive a full refund through Ticketmaster. Please contact them directly with regard to any refund enquiries.

Get ready for a night of fun, laughter, and some very questionable cooking! The Rude Food comedy cook-off takes four local celebrities and gives them one hour to cook a two-course meal, with a menu designed to stretch their self-admitted limits in the kitchen.

Rugby legend Piri Weepu and Westside’s Antonia Prebble will be taking on gold medal-winning paralympian Liam Malone and The Edge radio host Haylee Clark in this battle of the spatulas.

The MC for the night is Jeremy Corbett, host of 7 Days and regular presenter on TV3’s The Project. He is joined by celebrity chef Michael van de Elzen, who will be judging the end results.

Rude Food is one of the Cook’s Night Off charity's Christmas catalogue products, raising funds to support KidsCan.

$2 per hour to a max of $12 on weekends and a $12 flat rate for weekday evenings at The Civic car park. Find out more
