Netflix Is A Joke festival, aka, the largest comedy festival in North America, is set to make its return this May, and it's bigger than ever. Taking place from May 2 to May 12, the festival will feature over 400+ live stand-up shows, special events, table reads, sketches, and more across 35+ venues with some of the funniest people in the entertainment industry. On Sunday, May 5, the lineup includes an event titled The Greatest Roast Of All Time: Tom Brady, which will be aired live on Netflix.
This will be Netflix's first-ever live roast, and it will air unedited and uncensored on the streaming platform from the Kia Forum in Los Angeles on May 5 at 5:00 p.m. PT/8:00 p.m. ET. In addition, you're looking at an air time of 7:00 p.m. CT on Netflix if you're in the Central time zone. Emmy-nominated comedian and actor Kevin Hart is set to host the live Netflix event. He is also signed on as executive producer, along with Brady, Casey Patterson, Jeff Ross, and Jeff Clanagan.
You can buy tickets to see the comedy event in person via Ticketmaster. However, it's important to mention that tickets are running low now that the event's date is nearing. So, you might want to buy your tickets as soon as possible before they're completely sold out.
