ABOUT THE FESTIVAL
fROM THE PRODUCERS OF THE RIOT COMEDY Club
The Riot Comedy Club has been a staple in the Houston Comedy scene producing comedy shows with some of the biggest names in standup in the legendary comedy room at Rudyards. Created by award-winning comedian and entrepreneur Brian Gendron alongside his co-producer Zach Lyons and their small team. The Riot produces over 600 public and private shows each year. The Riot is recognized nationally as one of the best rooms to perform in by touring comedians and has heralded a five-star google rating with almost 1,000 google reviews.
The vision for the festival is to connect fans with comedians through a fun and intimate experience and to bring the comedy industry to Houston. You can expect the same quality bar as we have with our shows - funny comedy, high production, tasty food, cold drinks, excellent service, and overall a damn good time. We can't wait to see y'all out there!
