What Is the New York Comedy Film Festival?

The New York Comedy Film Festival is NYC’s first film festival dedicated entirely to comedy.

For one week, we bring feature films, shorts, documentaries, and episodic work to the big screen — alongside filmmaker Q&As, premieres, panels, and late-night screenings.

Come for one night or spend the week with us. Either way, this is comedy meant to be experienced in a room full of people.

What Can You Expect at the New York Comedy Film Festival?

• Big-screen comedy films shown the way they’re meant to be seen
• World and New York premieres
• Filmmaker Q&As and industry panels
• Late-night screenings and special events
• Real rooms. Real reactions. Real laughs.
