HOC’s Funniest Person Contest

It’s that time of year again, but with a small change in name! Our beloved Funniest Person with a Day Job contest will now be known as HOC’s Funniest Person—we found the original title was a bit too long for the check. This year marks our 10th annual contest, and the popularity continues to grow each year. How to Enter: Participation is open to all, with just one requirement: 5 minutes of original material. Our panel of guest judges and professional comedians will score the performances. Win three rounds, and you’ll walk away with a $1,000 grand prize the moniker of Funniest Person 2025. Contest Dates: The contest will run every Wednesday for 9 weeks:

April 16: Round 1
April 23: Round 2
April 30: Round 3
May 14: Round 4
May 21: Round 5
May 28: Semi Final 1
June 4: Semi Final 2
June 11: The Final

How to Submit: Simply submit your entry online for a chance to secure a spot in the contest. Please note: Entries are limited, so be sure to enter early. The final date to submit is April 2, 2025.

We look forward to seeing you bring your best material to the stage!
