The Asheville Improv Festival is a Double Dip Production. Our yearly festival is produced by local improvisers right here in Appalachia. Our small team wears many hats to make this festival possible for improv enjoyers around the country. We feature diverse improv teams and headliners who entertain sold out audiences with a range of improv formats including short-form, longform, narrative/unscript

ed theater, musical, and more. Community is at the heart of everything we do. Between our local sponsors, staff, and improvisers, we love to highlight Asheville’s eclectic energy and talent.
