Here’s an International Comedy Festival Directory Courtesy of Comedy Producer Extraordinaires Karen Wachtel and Marianne Ways
We do our best here at TCB to cover what’s happening day in and day out with comedy in LA and NYC. With that in mind, that only leaves so much bandwidth to take on covering the bases for other things, perhaps an entire list of comedy festivals. Certainly, it’s something we’ve dreamed of, but after nearly 12 years of operation, it’s still one person at the helm here.
Luckily, High Plains Comedy Festival’s Karen Wachtel and Marianne Ways (Butterboy and so many other great NYC comedy things) have put together a comprehensive of comedy focused festivals not only in North America, but across the globe at tinyurl.com/comedyfests and already has well over 125 listed.
Take a gander for yourself at the list, deadlines, submission fees, etc. as well as, if you know of an active comedy festival not listed, sending the info to tinyurl.com/festupdate.
