Transformer Comedy Festival

Pittsfield, Massachusetts is a town that pioneered countless scientific and manufacturing advancements, including the development of the electrical transformer - economic boom and bust as well as the environmental impact is something many try to unfortunately ignore or forget. This homegrown festival is designed to bring people into the downtown of the county seat for three evenings of entertainment and great food and drink. Since the decline of manufacturing in the region, Pittsfield is a town that has been transforming itself into a city of diverse employment, and a robust arts and culture scene.

National (and international) touring headliners will be supported by local and regional comics, curated by a production team that has been creating comedy shows in the Berkshires, and beyond, for more than a decade. The festival is anchored at each end of downtown by 2 business partners who, among other dedicated individuals, have shown their commitment to making Pittsfield a destination, we thank our friends at Dorothy’s and .
