- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 06 Apr, 2026 at 11:00 am – Mon, 06 Apr, 2026 at 12:00 pm (+10:00)
- **Event Description**: IKEA WARS IS COMING HOME! The festival favourite, birthed through successive Melbourne Fringe iterations, returns to where it began: Trades Hall. This time, it's MICF.

It's time to enter the Flatpack Thunderdome! IKEA WARS is a high-octane comedy game show pitting two comedians against each other in the ultimate home improvement indignity – building IKEA furniture on stage in front of a live audience. 

The challenge is simple: rip open the flatpack and build the piece of furniture before your opponent does. Is it a race? Yes. Is it a game show? Also yes! A plethora of chaotic sabotages are on hand to ensure that the road to glory is paved with pitfalls!

Build the furniture.

Survive the sabotages.

*Be crowned the Champion of Sweden!

*title not officially recognised by the Swedish government.

Let's build!

'Who knew you could get so engrossed, anxious, agitated, in watching IKEA furniture being built!' Fringefeed
