About LGBTLOL Fest
The inaugural Queer Comedy Festival was a single-day event at Comedy House Nola. The Festival was born during Pride Month 2022 in New Orleans with a mission to amplify LGBTQIA+ voices. What started as a small showcase for queer entertainers is rapidly growing into packed shows with emerging local talent & sold out rooms. A truly ubiquitous comedy festival on the national circuit.
