SoWal Comedy Festival At Multiple Venues Feb 12-14

SoWal Comedy Fest returns Thursday, February 12 through Saturday, February 14, 2026, bringing three days of sharp, big-city stand-up to South Walton over Valentine’s weekend with more than a dozen performers — an ideal date-weekend escape built around intimate rooms, capped attendance, and unforgettable nights out.

After two straight years of sold-out crowds and sellout nights across the festival, early ticket purchase is strongly encouraged.

For the first time, every show offers reserved seating by selection, so guests can secure the spot that matches their night—front-row energy, center-room immersion, or a quieter corner with friends.

2026 headliners include:
• Peter Wong (New York, NY) — featured on Comedy Central and Nate Bargatze’s Nateland; returning for his third year.
• Anjelica Scannura (New York, NY) — Recently awarded Just For Laughs “New Face of Stand-Up” and the first Canadian woman to win the Boston Comedy Festival.
• Carter Deems (Atlanta, GA) — MTV’s Wild ’N Out alum with writing credits including Epic Rap Battles of History and Drop The Mic.
Shows run across all three nights with two showtimes (6:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.) at each venue.

VENUE HIGHLIGHTS
SOWAL House — an intimate, welcoming room in Rosemary Beach at the heart of South Walton’s cultural scene, built for up-close stand-up.
