FESTIVAL GOALSWith 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.
