Lisbon is getting ready to laugh (a lot) and for real; after a dazzling debut in 2025, with over 10,000 people in attendance, the Worten Mock Fest confirmed long ago its return to the iconic Cinema São Jorge on August 28, 29, and 30.
For three days, the city will once again be the epicenter of national and international stand-up comedy, this year featuring three must-see names in global comedy.
Three days, three titans of global comedy
Chris D’Elia, Michelle Wolf, and Sam Morril will raise the bar for this comedy festival in Lisbon, creators and stars of some of the biggest stand-up specials on major streaming platforms and late-night shows.
The return of Chris D’Elia, on August 28
The 2026 lineup kicks off with Chris D’Elia, known for the podcast “Congratulations” and a string of hit specials on Netflix such as “Man on Fire” and “No Pain.” D’Elia is a master of physical comedy and frenetic energy on stage.
Michelle Wolf’s sharp wit, on August 29
Known for delivering one of the greatest comedy performances at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington and for Netflix hits like “It’s Great to Be Here,” Wolf brings her cynical and intelligent humor that has made her one of the most relevant voices of her generation.
The Sam Morril phenomenon, on August 30
To top it all off , New Yorker Sam Morril takes the stage at Cinema São Jorge —a true YouTube phenomenon before winning over Amazon Prime subscribers with his special “You’ve Changed.” Also worth noting is his podcast “Might Be Drunk,” which already has over 100 million views.
Highlight: “live” podcasts
The Worten Mock Fest has just raised the bar for its second edition, with the festival celebrating podcast culture and digital entertainment with major additions to the national lineup: Bumba na Fofinha, Os Primos, and the Cubinho collective are some of the new confirmations that promise to bring digital humor and reflection to the stage in a live format.
Joining these names are the projects “Assim Vamos Ter de Falar de Outra Maneira” and “Palácio da Ajuda,” consolidating the festival as the go-to event for anyone who wants to see their favorite content creators off-screen.
