1/2 Way to the Fest Fundraiser Show
Thank you to everyone who packed the room for our 2026 Fundraiser Show. Your energy, your laughter, your raffle‑ticket hustle, your support—it all helped fuel the next chapter of the Latina Comedy Festival. From the folks who showed up early to the ones who brought friends, donated prizes, and cheered on every comedian who donated their time and talent, we felt the love. This community is the reason we get to keep building something big, bold, and beautifully Latina.

Thursday, October 2nd through Saturday, October 4th, 2025
Thank you to everyone who joined us for the 2025 Latina Comedy Festival! You showed up in a big way, helping us bring together an unforgettable weekend of showcases, workshops, and community for Latinas from across the world, October 2–4, 2025 at The Lincoln Lodge.
We were proud to partner with The Lincoln Lodge, a non-profit comedy club dedicated to promoting comedy and creating opportunities for local artists in the Chicago community – the perfect venue partner for our 2025 festival.
Because of you, audiences experienced top Latina comedians from across North America in 20 vibrant showcases in English, Spanish, and Spanglish. Your support, especially during a very distressing time in our community, made this celebration of talent and culture possible, and we’re so grateful you were part of it.
THANK YOU 2025 SPONSORS
