Volcano: A Comedy Show for Adults & Mini-Camp for Kids

May 25 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Science, Comedy, & Childcare: We’ve Got Your Night Covered!

The kids get hands-on, and you get hands-off! While Ben Miller’s Volcano: A Science Comedy Show serves up laughs (and lava facts) for adults, kids ages 4 and up can join our volcano-themed mini-camp next door. Campers will build their own salt-dough volcanoes, then make them erupt for their grown-ups after the show.

Ben’s comedy is recommended for ages 18+, so we’re giving parents a stress-free night out — complete with beer and wine available for purchase — while our instructors keep the kids entertained.

Tickets for the comedy show and mini-camp are sold separately, so book both or just the one that suits your night.

Show Description: What happens when a comedian walks into a volcano? Find out in this science-packed comedy show with Ben Miller!

In 2023, Ben Miller was the artist-in-residence at Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park — the first stand-up comedian ever selected.

Come watch as scientist-turned-comedian Ben Miller explores volcanology, entomology, Hawaiian history, cats, cookies, and more — with plenty of laughs along the way! Ben has made people laugh in front of a burning lava lake — and he is not afraid of you!
