THE DC COMEDY FESTIVAL

The Festival is proud to spotlight the talent that lives and thrives in the DC metro area and to pay tribute to the scene that first gave laughs to Dave Chappelle, Martin Lawrence, and Wanda Sykes. The Festival takes place in several clubs and venues across the District. This year, the DC Comedy Festival team is excited to host our last night of shows at The Miracle Theater on 535 8th St SE, Washington, DC 20003 at 7:30 pm and 10:30 pm

OVERVIEW

The DC Comedy Festival is set to showcase a diverse line-up of comedians from across the country. From open mics to national headliners, the Festival is guaranteed to bring the talent and the laughs. It will also offer an educational workshop for comedians who will learn how to build their brand and business.

FESTIVAL GOALS

With hopes to make the DC Comedy Festival the biggest showcase on the East Coast and eventually the country, the Festival creators aim to make an event that attendees will mark their calendars for next year.

HOW DID THE IDEA FOR THIS FESTIVAL COME ABOUT?

Three comedians from the DC metro area saw the need to provide a platform for comedians of all levels, from bright-eyed newcomers to seasoned veterans, to perform and to network with other comics, bookers, and showrunners. They decided to create an event that not only highlights local talent but also gives the public a chance to become a part of a community that moves every night, bar to bar, mic to mic. With over 200 comedians coming to the event last year, this year will be one of the funniest networking comedy festivals this year.
