Welcome to the Los Angeles Comedy Film Festival! In May 2022 we will be hosting LA's Premiere Comedy Event!
IMDb qualifying.
We have had our hand in producing comedy for over 15 years and this is not our first rodeo. In 2010 we began the Chicago Comedy Film Festival. After 9 years successfully running in Chicago we are expanding based on feedback that filmmakers want a strong comedy film festival in Los Angeles. As filmmakers and producers ourselves, we have produced short and feature films. We know how sacred it is to produce your own content and then ask a committee of people to review your work. We will be an inclusive, welcoming festival, and we promise to make your experience with us memorable. The Los Angeles Comedy Film Festival is a film festival for the comedy filmmaker. Let’s have a laugh!
Join our alumni like Colin Mochrie, Lauren Lapkus, Matthew Gray Gubler, Ego Nwodim, Mindy Sterling, Margret Cho, Steve Martin, Jane Lynch, Sarah Silverman, Natalia Dyer, Michael Cera, Keegan-Micheal Key, Christopher Titus, Janeane Garofalo, Fred Armisen, Richard Belzer, Jackie Mason, Bill Maher, Luke Perry, Gary Cole, Rowan Blanchard, Jack Quaid, Cheri Oteri, Kristen Johnson, Micheal Boatman, Nancy Travis, David Koechner, James Masters, Kaitlin Doubleday, Alexis Knapp, Rex Lee, Rosanna Arquette, Yumi Lambert, Fred Willard, Kevin Farley, Adrian Grenier, Patton Oswald, Mel Brooks, Lou Diamond Phillips, Doug Jones, Thomas Lennon, John Bradley, Sunita Mani and many others!
