This Thursday, more than 50 comedians from all across America and Canada will take over downtown Paris for the 2020 Tower City Comedy Festival.

The festival is being held Jan. 30 through Feb. 1 in two venues, The Blind Pig and Tower City Comedy Club, both downtown.

Each night hosts a nationally touring headliner; Thursday is Shane Torres (Comedy Central, NBC, Last Comic Standing), Friday features Jenny Zigrino (Bad Santa, TBS, Tru TV, IFC, MTV, Etc.) Saturday is the big one, that ’s when we welcome Jimmy Pardo (Conan, Race to Escape, Becker, That 70’s Show, Comedy Central, etc.).

“We didn’t know what to expect the first year and really did all we could to create great shows for the public and a great event for the talent,” said Daryl Felsberg, Professional Comic and event organizer.

“We anonymously polled participants to get input, and the response was overwhelming and motivated us to continue moving forward with it. Our signature sponsor last year Quality Care ER, came through again even bigger for the 2020 festival, and we couldn’t be more appreciative and prouder. They see the performing art for what it is.”

The festival acts as a showcase, networking, and conference for professional comics as they perform at different venues and attend panels throughout the weekend.

The public is invited to attend. Some of the shows to expect are TV-friendly showcases, Roast Battles-Texas Vs The Nation (Texas comics face-off with out of state comics), Off the Cuff (entirely improved stand up show), the headliner shows, podcasts and more.
