Hell Yes Fest is the Gulf South’s largest and most irreverent comedy festival, founded in 2011 by Chris Trew. Based in New Orleans, the festival showcases stand-up, improv, sketch, and related forms across multiple venues in the French Quarter and beyond. While a “West Coast vs. Gulf Coast” variant appears on some ticket aggregators, the core festival remains a New Orleans-centric celebration of comedy, community, and collaboration.
