This summer, NYLaughs is popping up all over NYC—taking stand-up where it rarely dares to tread: parks, rooftops and all the public spaces where New Yorkers pretend they’re not laughing. For over a decade, with the help of public support, NYLaughs has brought joy for free to the people while uplifting stand-up as a civic art form and a uniquely powerful NYC cultural asset—with appearances from comedy’s brightest like Hannibal Buress, Michael Che, Roy Wood Jr., and more along the way.

Now? We’re beyond thrilled to land at Lincoln Center with three unforgettable shows that celebrate the power, punch, and poetry of women’s voices—plus one sizzling night of Brazilian and South American brilliance. We kick it all off with our Juneteenth celebration, honoring not only freedom and Black joy, but also the 50th anniversary of Saturday Night Live and one incredible woman who helped shape that legendary comedy institution. Headlining the night is SNL alum Molly Kearney, joined by the hilarious SNL writer KC Shornima, Jackie Fabulous, Caitlin Peluffo and more!

Lincoln’s about to get loud. Come laugh like you mean it. Line-ups subject to change.

General Admission. Limited advance tickets are free. Seating is first-come, first-served.
