Mega Comedy Festival Launches in Rhode Island, March 27-30

 

Rhode Island will be home this month to a major comedy festival from Thursday, March 27, through Sunday, March 30, 2025.

Michael Gravison, marketing director for Veterans Memorial Auditorium, joined GoLocal LIVE to give an overview.

“There are some amazing names coming to Providence: Kevin Hart, Aziz Ansari, Hannah Berrner, and Leslie Jones. You know we're taking over the city.  We're going to be at PPAC. We're going to be at the Vets and the Comedy Connection as well as a bunch of other little venues around the city,” said Gravison.

Providence may be the perfect city for such an event.

“What makes Providence so unique, and you know we're we're a small city, we're a walkable City. You can go everywhere. You know we have great hotel partners. You can stay downtown. We're working with the CVB [Providence-Warwick Convention and Vistors Bureau] and their Culinary Collective and the food and wine event,” Gravison said.

Anchored at The VETS and spilling over into satellite venues around the city including, the Providence Performing Arts Center and RI Comedy Connection, this festival will feature four days packed of expertly crafted chaos, witty one-liners, and just enough self-deprecating humor to make us all feel seen.
