Festival Venues
Discover the essence of laughter in the heart of South Walton as we bring comedy to life in some of the area's most unique and captivating venues. From the cozy charm of SOWAL House to the artistic ambiance of Seaside Institute, the spirited vibes at Distillery 98, the laid-back fun at Grayton Brewery, and the whimsical grandeur of Gaffrey Art House, our Sand Up Comedy Festival showcases the best of South Walton's eclectic spaces for a one-of-a-kind comedy experience.
As the epicenter of South Walton's cultural scene, SOWAL House offers an intimate, welcoming space where local artists and comedy enthusiasts gather to experience the magic of live stand-up comedy. This unique venue provides the perfect backdrop for comedians to share their comedic genius, connecting with audiences on a whole new level.
Like Seaside itself, the Seaside Institute is a proud incubator of ideas. Beginning in the 1980s, the Institute brought together early New Urban practitioners, coming together for the first time to discuss best practices in design, construction, retailing, market analysis and governance and to teach the techniques to others.
Come for the vibrant spirits and craft cocktails, stay for the atmosphere and spend some quality time with your favorite people. At Distillery 98, there’s a little something for everyone: insider tours of the distillery, local art celebrating the heritage of Scenic Highway 30A and of course, live events.
Enjoy a beer where it is actually brewed! The Grayton Beer Company Taproom is located inside of our 30,000 square-foot, state-of-the-art production facility in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida. The open-air, industrial space is the perfect spot to grab a beer and watch some of the best stand up comedy in the country.
VIP Sponsors are invited to join us for the Sand Up Comedy Festival Afterparty on Thursday Night at the Gaffrey Art House! This exclusive event promises an evening of unparalleled entertainment and connections.
