NIGHT 1

We’re kicking off the Nantucket Comedy Festival with one of our most beloved traditions: an evening spotlighting some incredibly funny and nationally recognized female comedians.

Women’s Night of Comedy brings the laughs year after year, and 2025 is no exception. Whether you're planning a girls’ night out, a date night, or just looking for a great time, join us for a hilarious and high-energy start to the festival!

NIGHT 2

Our Friday night stars hail from north of the border, bringing the sharp wit and perspective that make Canadian comedians beloved around the world.

This wildly funny evening shines a spotlight on the humor that makes Canada unique.

A fresh addition to the Fest, this all-star lineup is not to be missed!

NIGHT 3

It’s the comedy showdown of the summer as top comedians from Boston and New York go head-to-head in the final event of the Nantucket Comedy Festival. Emmy Award winner Bob Ley of ESPN returns as referee, keeping the punches funny and (mostly) above the belt as these two legendary cities battle for bragging rights.

This show sells out fast—if you’re not a Patron Pass holder, grab your tickets early!
