The West Chester Comedy Festival is a brand new stand-up comedy festival coming to several venues across the West Chester, PA borough, Thursday through Saturday, September 10-12th, 2026. We’ve got dozens of the funniest comedians from around the country coming to perform stand-up, variety, storytelling and more!
3 nights of stand-up, all hits no misses! It’s all happening right here in downtown WC!
This year we received over 140+ submissions for stand-up, variety, and storytelling acts! We're very excited to showcase some of the best and brightest comedic talents from around the country right here in West Chester. See you in September!
An awesome comedy festival needs lots of helping hands, and you (probably) have two of them! From checking in audiences, setting up shows, coordinating talent, security and more, we want to get the whole community involved. Volunteers will get to enjoy free access to shows, after-parties, and more!
