Masood Boomgaard Brings His Unfiltered Laughs to Johannesburg in 2025

South Africa’s king of spiritual sarcasm and unapologetically unfiltered humour, Masood Boomgaard, is back with a bang – and Johannesburg is in for a night of no-holds-barred hilarity.
Known for his razor-sharp wit and satirical takes on everything from self-help culture to South African life, Boomgaard’s comedy bridges the spiritual and the absurd in a way that only he can. Whether you know him from viral stand-up clips or his offbeat online alter ego “Self-Help Singh,” this is your chance to catch the man behind the mic – live and unfiltered.

What to Expect
Boomgaard’s shows are less of a stand-up set and more of a comedic awakening. Fans can look forward to bits about South African culture, relationships, religion, and the existential chaos of everyday life – all served with his trademark deadpan delivery.
His 2025 tour promises fresh material, new perspectives, and that distinct Masood-style take on the modern world.
Why Melrose Arch is the Perfect Fit
Melrose Arch’s trendy Fire & Ice! Hotel is known for its sleek atmosphere and lively nightlife. It’s the ideal backdrop for an evening of entertainment with friends or a spontaneous date night out in the city.
Located in the heart of Johannesburg’s stylish northern suburbs, the venue offers secure parking, a buzzing pre-show vibe, and great post-show hangouts to keep the laughs going long after the final punchline.
Johannesburg, mark your calendars – May 2025 is bringing a triple dose of laughs as Masood Boomgaard hits the stage on the 16th, 17th, and 31st. Whether you’re a longtime fan or just curious about the comedian everyone’s talking about, Masood Boomgaard’s live show is not to be missed.
Book your tickets early – seating is limited and this one’s guaranteed to sell out.
