The Funny Is Female Comedy Festival is dedicated to elevating and amplifying the voices of women and female-identifying people in comedy by creating an inclusive, empowering, and laughter-filled space. We believe that women are not only funny—but have long been overlooked in the industry. Through performances, panels with industry professionals in attendance, and networking, we foster a supportive community that champions equity, representation, and the power of humor to inspire change. It’s more than just shows — it’s a celebration of bold voices, big laughs, and the future of comedy.
