Jo Koy at Saenger Theatre

Jo Koy

One of the most popular comics on today's circuit, it's rather hard to imagine Koy starting off in a humble Las Vegas coffee shop way back in 1994.

Atsuko Okatsuka at The Civic Theatre

Atsuko Okatsuka

Comedian Atsuko Okatsuka is coming to you! Okatsuka went viral after creating the #Dropchallenge with her grandmother, where she drops (like it's hot!) and comes back up as slowly as she possibly can, she even taught Chelsea Handler how to do it on Jimmy Kimmel Live. The method behind her madness is pure and simple, silliness, saying that if it makes her happy, she hopes it'll make others happy. Striving to spread joy through her comedy, she's the perfect way to beat those end-of-summer blues. Tickets are quickly selling out, so get yours now for her nationwide tour!

Danae Hays at The Joy Theater

Danae Hays

TikTok's hottest comedian Danae Hays is hitting the road for The First Time tour this summer. The Southern star has journeyed on a long road from softball player to comic, and she's not stopped there having branched into the music scene with her satirical southern stylings. Her wealth of material is hilarious and inexhaustible, whether it's learning how to use an excavator from YouTube, or avoiding the Nosey Neighbor, Danae will have you laughing all the way home. It might be your First Time seeing Hays, but it definitely won't be your last! Dates are selling out fast so don't miss out.

85 South at Smoothie King Center

85 South

From auspicious beginnings in Steve Harvey's very own studio, the 85 South Comedy Show made their way onto the podcast scene with the tagline 'a podcast for people who know what a podcast is'. Legend has it, the rib-tickling trio behind the show (namely Atlanta actors and comedians DC Young Fly, Karlous Miller and Clayton English) were unceremoniously kicked out of the aforementioned studio, but stuck to their guns and carved a niche by bringing the freshest comedic talent from the South onto their platform to perform free-styles, stand-up routines and hilarious audio sketches.
