Netflix has unveiled the lineup for the 2024 iteration of Netflix Is a Joke Fest, which will feature appearances by David Letterman, John Mulaney, Tom Brady, Chris Rock, Ali Wong, Jerry Seinfeld, Seth Rogen, Chelsea Handler, and many more.
Netflix confirmed this past March that the massive, multi-day festival would be returning in 2024 for a 10-day run in Los Angeles, booked for May 2nd through 12th at venues across the city. According to a new press release, this year’s offerings will include over 300 live stand-up shows, special events, table reads, sketches, and more. Tickets for events go on sale on Friday, December 15th, at 1:00 p.m. ET via the festival’s website.
Joining the aforementioned acts will be an impressive list of comedic talent, including Anthony Jeselnik, Bill Burr, Cedric the Entertainer, Daniel Tosh, Dane Cook, Demetri Martin, Deon Cole, Fortune Feimster, Jon Stewart, Jim Gaffigan, Katt Williams, Kevin Hart, Kumail Nanjiani, Leslie Jones, Mark Normand, Matteo Lane, Matt Rife, Maya Rudolph, Mike Birbiglia, Nate Bargatze, Nick Kroll, Patton Oswalt, Sebastian Maniscalco, Shane Gillis, Stavros Halkias, Tim Dillon, Tim Robinson, Tom Papa, Wanda Sykes, and others, with “more headliners to be announced” next year.
One highlight will be titled “G.R.O.A.T.,” or “The Greatest Roast of All Time: Tom Brady,” a roast of the football legend hosted by roastmaster Jeff Ross himself, which will be filmed by Netflix. Additionally, Chris Rock will host table reads of his favorite films; the cast of Big Mouth will perform at the Greek Theater, as will the creators of I Think You Should Leave; Seth Rogen will host another variety show benefiting the Alzheimer’s charity Hilarity For Charity; and more.
In addition to the Greek Theater, venues participating in the 2024 festival include the Hollywood Bowl, The Forum, the Hollywood Palladium, the Wiltern, the Laugh Factory, the Hollywood Improv, The Comedy Store, and others. There will also be a central hub of the festival outside the Hollywood Palladium dubbed Outside Joke, which will host late night live stand-up, cast games shows, lawn games, and more.

The 2024 iteration of Netflix Is a Joke follows the 2022 version of the festival, which included sets by Pete Davidson, Bill Burr, Amy Schumer, Snoop Dogg, and more, and even featured a tribute to Bob Saget.
