The Asheville Comedy Network exists to support comics, nurture growth, and help performers reach the next stage of their careers. We focus on giving new and emerging comedians the structure, stage time, and community they need to level up.

ACN works as a comedy incubator for Asheville’s up-and-coming talent. We provide consistent opportunities to perform in front of real audiences, paired with workshops that strengthen writing, delivery, and stage presence. Our goal is simple: build better comics and build a stronger comedy scene.

We’re here to make Asheville a place where comedians can grow, audiences can discover new talent, and the entire community benefits from a thriving comedy culture.
