Kentucky Comedy Festival

 

Two Cities. One Mission. 
A Whole Lot of Laughs!

Welcome to the

Kentucky Comedy Festival!

From rising stars to comedy legends, the Kentucky Comedy Festival brings the funny—every summer and fall—in Paducah and Murray, Kentucky.

Created by Western Kentucky native Ben Wilson and his English Bulldog, Farley, the Kentucky Comedy Festival is proud to return in Summer 2025 and Fall 2025 with two exciting lineups of clean, crowd-pleasing comedy.

Profits from the festival support the Living the Dream with Ben and the Bulldogs Scholarship at Murray State University and help bring future comedy events to Western Kentucky.

Support comedy. Support Kentucky.
