Shift Drinks Comedy announces the sixth annual, All The Laughs (ATL) Comedy Awards. This event is to recognize comedic creators from around the globe and to come together to celebrate community, collaboration, and of course comedy! Under the backdrop of the thriving Atlanta (ATL) comedy scene over three days we will be showcasing the very talented and hard-working comedians from across the globe. Can't make it in person, no worries, we will also simulcast a portion of the festival through our virtual theatre platform, Sparq, so there's no need for traveling or pants. So if you're there in person or online, you'll enjoy screening parties to include the works from all the nominees, industry panels, live comedy, and culminating with an awards presentation, with special guests, all to celebrate; community, collaboration, and comedy!

Everyone deserves a shot, only a few will win The Golden Pitcher!

Awards & Prizes

The nominees in each category will receive a festival laurel, as well as be showcased during the three day event. The winner in each category will receive a laurel, a certificate, and the personal engraved coveted Golden Pitcher. This statuette is crafted by Society Awards, the world’s most prestigious designer and manufacturer of custom awards. Society Awards has designed and crafted many of the world’s top awards including the Emmys®, Clio Statuette, MTV’s VMA Moon Person, Academy of Country Music Awards, and the American Music Awards.

    Dom and his team were awesome! The festival was great, I had a blast! I won't have anything to submit next year but I'll still make the drive from Florida for it.
