One of the funniest weekends in Tampa history is almost here. The Sunshine Comedy Fest is taking over the entire Tampa Bay region January 11-14 of 2024, bringing four days of huge laughs to Tampa and St. Pete.

Presented by Side Splitters and Coastal Creative, the gigantic comedy festival will feature dozens of big-name acts, ranging from stars of the NYC standup scene to social media sensations who have built massive followings. Tickets are available now, and many of them are expected to sell out, so we recommend acting quickly. See below for headliners coming to town.

While the four days will bring a flurry of standup specials to the area, Sunshine Comedy Fest is going above and beyond with an incredible lineup of programming for the weekend that includes much more than straight comedy shows. There will be live podcasts, meet and greets with comedians, after-parties following shows, live music, and even a VIP pool bash.

Tampa’s iconic comedy venues host traveling comics

Sunshine Comedy Fest will be hosted at a wide range of iconic venues throughout Tampa and St. Pete, from the Historic Floridian Social Club to the beloved Side Splitters Comedy Club. Tickets are available either by the day or for the entire festival, with four tiers of full weekend tickets available.

In fact, organizers have unveiled a new “All You Can Laugh” ticket to help attendees get inside even the most crowded shows. The $125 pass covers the entire weekend, and Sunshine Comedy Fest builds your weekend lineup, complete with all the biggest headliners, making sure you see everything you want. And if there’s a show you want to see that’s not on the schedule, you’ll have first dibs on any open seats or standing room.
