Created and produced by Copeland, Comedy in the Plaza has become a signature community event since its launch in 2019, drawing large crowds and showcasing top-tier comedic talent in an outdoor setting. Now in its fifth year, the show continues to grow in both scale and impact.

In addition to world-class entertainment, this year’s event includes a meaningful community partnership with the Davis Street Family Resource Center. Sponsorship support will provide 100 backpacks and 100 pairs of school shoes for San Leandro children in need, making the event both a major cultural happening and a direct investment in local families.
