Pick of the Day: SF Sketchfest Live-streams 1/21-2/5
One of the world’s biggest comedy festivals, SF Sketchfest, is just a few days away and if you’re not in San Francisco by this Friday (or over two weeks after that), you’ll absolutely have missed out on comedy magic that can only be conjured up by the long running massive, magical gathering of the best comedy folks around.
That said, there are a handful of very special events that will be live-streamed thanks to the good folks at Moment from the festival itself that you can tune into from all around the world (double or triple check time zones). Tickets for most of these are $20 (and you didn’t have to book hotel and airfare in SF, which you ought to will burn a hole in your wallet).
Of the dozens upon dozens of amazing live comedy shows that will be happening, you’ll be able to live-stream the following from your own home:
Hello From the Magic Tavern @ 1/21 4PM PT/7PM ET
