Netflix’s Joke Fest Returns to Los Angeles with Over 350 Acts

Netflix is bringing back its famous comedy festival, Netflix is a Joke Fest, for the third time in Los Angeles this May! It’s packed with over 350 comedy shows and a few surprises in store. The lineup this year is seriously impressive, with big names like Jon Stewart, Conan O’Brien, Adam Sandler, Ali Wong, Kevin Hart, and so many more set to grace the stage.

But wait, there’s more! This year, Netflix is adding some musical acts like Lizzo, Feid, and even a tribute to Pee-wee Herman featuring the B-52s and Danny Elfman. Plus, they’re leaning into podcast tapings with guests like Mike Tyson and Kate Hudson. The events will be spread across 35 venues, including iconic spots like the Hollywood Bowl and the Comedy Store.

Tickets for the fest go on sale January 23, so mark your calendars. And remember, some presales might start a couple of days earlier. With so many incredible shows to choose from, it can get a bit pricey if you plan on attending multiple events. So, be selective and maybe consider taking the shuttles instead of driving to save some hassle.

The lineup is still being finalized, but here are some of the shows already announced for the festival:
– Night of Too Many Stars hosted by Jon Stewart
– Funny AF with Kevin Hart stand-up competition
– Nate Bargatze taping at Intuit Dome
– John Mulaney: Mister Whatever at the Hollywood Bowl
– Lizzo hosts a night of comedy and music
– Flight of the Conchords, Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie’s first live show in a decade

Keep an eye out for more show announcements leading up to the festival. It’s going to be a week full of laughs, music, and podcast tapings that you won’t want to miss!
