Record-breaking comedian Nate Bargatze will be headlining the 2024 Lucille Ball Comedy Festival on Saturday, August 3 at the Northwest Arena in Jamestown, New York. 

Bargatze joins previously announced headliners Nicole Byer on Thursday, August 1 and Jeff Ross on Friday, August 2. Both of the comedians will be performing at the Reg Lenna Center for the Arts. 

According to the comedy center, the festival will feature over 50 live events. The festival will celebrate comedy's contemporary stars and rising talent from across the county, while also celebrating comedy's great heritage. 

Bargatze has been selling out shows and breaking attendance records around the world with his current "The Be Funny" tour. 

“I’ve had the pleasure of visiting the National Comedy Center and it’s just awesome. The interactivity of all the exhibits is amazing – there is nothing else like it. So, it’s a thrill for me to perform at the National Comedy Center’s Lucille Ball Comedy Festival this August. I hope everyone will come out to see us in Jamestown – and visit the Comedy Center before our show,” said Nate Bargatze.

Bargatze made his hosting debut on Saturday Night Live last fall. 

“With Nate Bargatze, Nicole Byer and Jeff Ross, we truly have a stellar headliner lineup this summer,” stated Malachi Livermore, the National Comedy Center’s Vice President of Programming & Guest Experience. “Together with many of the best stand-ups from across the country, Lucy celebration events, bigger block parties with live music and more, the 2024 festival will celebrate the best of comedy’s past and present over four days.

Tickets for the Nate Bargatze show will go on pre-sale for National Comedy Center members on Tuesday, June 25 at noon. Tickets for non members will go on sale on Thursday, June 27 at noon. Tickets can be purchased on the National Comedy Center's website.
