Laugh It Up
Belly laughs at the Burbank Comedy Fest. // August 11 to August 17 Laughter makes all of our daily insanity tolerable, and bringing together some of the funniest in the biz as well as comedic newbies makes for some good old-fashioned fun. The Burbank Comedy Festival is a seven-night comedy event happening in three different venues throughout Burbank: Flappers Comedy Club, Barney’s Beanery, and Hilton Garden Inn. Featuring more than 100 improv, variety, and standup performances and 80 star-studded shows, podcasts, an industry panel, comedy classes, and after-parties, this sellout fest kicks off with Hal Sparks on August 11. Past headliners have included Adam Corrolla, Jeff Garlin, and David Zucker. Festival highlights include Wittiest Women, an all-female showcase on Tuesday, August 14; We Talk Funny with cartoon voices we know and love featuring Carlos Alazraqui; and workshops featuring professional writers, comedians, and industry leaders giving the low-down on breaking into the biz and honing your craft.
