FLOP FESTIVAL 2025

Flop Fest was one of the SF Chronicle’s Top 8 Theater Picks for the Fall 2024!

“At the company’s Second Flop Festival, the breadth and depth of clowning as an art form is on forceful display.”

3-5 SHOW PASS
2025 FULL FLOP FEST PASS

Clowns & Queens, don your finest noses and break out your Sunday best, Church of Clown is celebrating the beauty and frivolity of life with its third annual Flop Fest.

Flop Fest features an eclectic collection of International and Bay Area artists, movers, and dreamers.

Come commune with the sacred fools and loose yourself, if only for an evening, in the rapture of the ridiculous with any of the experimental and eccentric performances offered, or fully immerse yourself in the divine dance of the absurd with a full festival pass and become born anew in the fold of the fool. 

Church of Clown was founded to carry forth the eternal cause of the Clown, and to carry forward the light of laughter for a weary world. Join our cause, and find the salvation you seek at San Francisco’s second annual Clown Festival: Flop Fest.

Hungry? We’ve partnered with La Joya Cafe directly across the street at 28 Leland Ave. They’ll be staying open during the festival so you can eat between shows. Yum.
