All accepted acts at Duofest 2016 will be offered the option of being hosted by a local comedian so they can stay in town for free. More details will be available after your acceptance of a performance offered is received, but we strive to match people based on a variety of preferences (including sleep schedules, allergies, smoking/drinking preferences, etc.). Our visiting performers usually have a great experience with local hosts!

For performers who prefer to lodge on their own and for festival goers visiting from out of town Duofest and the Philly Improv Theater are once again partnering with Holiday Inn Express Midtown Philadelphia to offer discounted hotel rooms for festival performers and audiences visiting from out-of-town for a second year.

Performers will be able to secure rooms for the nights of June 1st, 2015 thru June 7th, 2015 with breakfast and wireless internet access included. You can call the hotel and ask for the special THEATRE RATE to secure the rate over the phone. This rate is subject to availability, so please book early! (By early May the rate is usually no longer good).
