The New York Comedy Festival, considered the largest comedy festival in the U.S., is about to get larger: In its 19th year, the 2023 NYCF will expand from seven to ten days, running Friday, Nov. 3 …
“We’re very excited to bring the best comedians – from emerging talent to established headliners – from across the country and throughout the world to perform at this year’s festival,” said Caroline Hirsch, founder and owner of the New York Comedy Festival. “We’ve curated an amazing line-up of shows, with many more to be announced in the coming months.”
Launched in 2004, NYCF brings together over 200 of the country’s top comedians who perform in more than 100 shows at venues in the five boroughs, including the Apollo Theatre, BAM, the Beacon Theatre, Carnegie Hall, Madison Square Garden, The Theater at MSG, Town Hall, and many more. This year, Hirsch will be honored with the first-ever Bob Saget Award presented by the Scleroderma Research Foundation on November 8 at the Edison Ballroom in New York City. The award honors the memory of the late Saget, who served as a SRF board member from 2003 – 2022 and was a SFR Ambassador since 1991.• 7 p.m. – Daniel Sloss – CAN’T at Town HallSATURDAY, NOVEMBER 4
