Students have long enjoyed the opportunity to see comedians ranging from small acts to nationally known performers live on their campus. In modern times, students consume comedy all the time online. Giving them the live experience is a perfect way to engage your student body and create an event that will build a lasting experience.
Social Media has made Comedy more Popular among College Students
Comedy shows are incredibly popular right now, especially among 18-30-year-olds. Much of this popularity is due to almost all comedians having a social media presence.
Take one of our comedians available for booking, Ryan Kelly, as an example. He has 5 million followers on TikTok alone. He has used social media to demonstrate his skills and spread his name as a comedian. When your students hear that their favorite comedian on social media is coming to your campus to do a show, they will be ecstatic.
College Comedians Help Students De-Stress
Young people are more stressed out than ever before; this, of course, includes college students. With students accumulating the stress of the semester with classwork, exams, social relationships, jobs, and other stress points, they can feel overwhelmed all the time. Bringing a comedian to your campus gives your students the perfect opportunity to de-stress and not feel overwhelmed.
Comedy is great for reducing stress levels. Laughing and having fun with their classmates and peers makes students feel less alone and able to handle the stresses of their daily life better. Going to a fun comedy show doesn’t just give students a moment to escape the stress; it also allows students to disperse the stress in a fun, safe way. Not to mention, students also just love having a fun comedy show to go to.
College Comics Help Students Connect
As event coordinators, it can sometimes feel like a struggle to get students to connect or even talk with each other. Fortunately, booking a stand-up comedian can help overcome this challenge with ease.
Stand-up comedy brings students together in the most powerful way of all, through laughter and fun. Going to a comedy show with your friends or classmates is incredible for creating bonds among students. The simple act of sitting down and laughing with each other can create a connection between people and a sense of friendship and companionship, even among strangers.
After the show is over, students often will be talking about the show and repeating jokes to each other for weeks to come. Overall, the whole show makes the college feel more like a community where having fun isn’t forbidden.
