Snowmass cranks up the comedy for summer 

The Collective Snowmass and Snowmass Live have announced the 2026 Summer Comedy Series, alongside the return of Snowmass Comedy WKND!

Back for its third year, Snowmass Comedy WKND! returns to Snowmass Village from July 10 to 12. The festival spans three nights of nationally recognized stand-up comedy, according to a press release. On the bill: Leah Lamarr, Kalea McNeill, Reem Edan and Zak Toscani are featured. They bring fresh points of view, bold jokes and exuberant performances to make it a mountain weekend filled with big laughs and slide-splitting moments. 

“Comedy WKND! and our Comedy Series has always been about creating memorable experiences through laughter, and we’re excited to bring another season of comedy to Snowmass,” Director of Plaza Venues and Events Sarah Sanders said.

The summer lineup features both up-and-coming and touring comedians, as well as community open-mic nights. Audiences can expect a mix of headliner shows and intimate evenings in The Collective Hall.

“We’re returning to the festival’s roots with smaller, more intimate shows and unique offerings that allow audiences to experience comedy in a different way,” Sanders said. “It’s been incredibly rewarding to watch the valley’s comedy community continue to grow, and I’m proud that The Collective can play a role in supporting that momentum while bringing exceptional talent to our mountain town and offering space for local talent too.”

McNeill said she is beyond excited to head to Colorado for the event this summer.

“Snowmass Comedy WKND! — no snow, just fun. Sign me up! After hearing so many great things about Snowmass Comedy WKND! from fellow comics, I can’t wait to experience it for myself and share some laughs with the Snowmass community,” McNeill told The Aspen Times.

Colorado-native stand-up comedian Edan is returning for her third year and headlining for the first time. Her Dry Bar Comedy special, “Ethnic, Ambiguous, and Single,” was released in April, and she will bring a new set to Snowmass Comedy WKND! 

“It’s so fun to come back to my home state,” Edan said. 

Her comedy is known as fun, interactive and quick-witted. She called it, “edgy, but not too edgy. I like to go to the edge, and I dance a lot, but I try not to cross it.”

To anchor the Summer Comedy Series, Snowmass Live has been hosting comedians at The Collective Hall since 2021. The Collective Hall is inside The Collective Snowmass community hub located at 49 Wood Road.
