Nine total shows and special events will make up the 2020 Milwaukee Comedy Festival, which will present dozens of stand up comics from across the country at four venues around Milwaukee. Festival Headliner Mary Mack will conclude the five-day event at Lakefront Brewery.

Shows during the festival will take place at various locations in Milwaukee including The Laughing Tap, Lakefront Brewery, Dandy, and Captain Pabst Pilot House. Newly opened comedy club The Laughing Tap will serve as the main location for this year’s festival.

Initially set to celebrate the festival’s 15th anniversary, the October event will honor “14½ Years of Laughs!” with the official 15 year celebration to take place in Fall of 2021.

Seating will be limited for all shows to ensure social distance guidelines are met for the safety of all guests and talent. A limited number of Tickets are available for $15 to most shows in the festival, and tickets for Mary Mack at Lakefront Brewery are $20. A live streaming option to see the festival will also be available.
