Philly Sketchfest 2026 Sketch Comedy Film Festival

Description

We're kicking off Philly Sketchfest 2026 with an onslaught of sketch comedy on the big screen!

On Thursday, June 4, 2026, Philly Sketchfest presents the 11th Annual Sketch Comedy Film Festival at PhilaMOCA. Join us live and in person for an evening packed with hilarious short films from comedians and independent comedy filmmakers from Philadelphia and beyond.

This year’s festival features a wide array of sketch shorts—from the brilliant, to the absurd, to the best possible version of dumb —curated to showcase some of the funniest emerging voices in sketch comedy. With two blocks of films from talented local and national creators (plus a few surprises along the way), it’s the perfect way to kick off a weekend of comedy.

The 2026 Film Festival features shorts from:

• Septar

• Your Father and I

• Unisex

• Chimp Cocktail

• Cliff Hanger

PLUS! The Encore Premiere of “House of Guns 3”, featuring Incredible Dreamz (Jacquie Baker, Matt Schmid, Rose Luardo and Andrew Jeffrey Wright)

Hosted by PSF Producer Curt Riedy, the Sketch Comedy Film Festival celebrates what Philly Sketchfest has always been about: building community and giving comedians a platform to share their weirdest, smartest, and beautifully stupid work. Don't miss it!
