Stand Up for St. Jude House

Stand Up for St. Jude Comedy Night

Northwest Indiana, get ready, we’re bringing the laughs to Hard Rock Casino!

This year, Stand Up for St. Jude House is setting the stage for an unforgettable evening filled with comedy, live music, great food, drinks, and meaningful moments, all in support of an incredible cause. Laugh-A-
Minute Segment : You Decide Who Takes the Mic!

As part of Stand Up for St. Jude House 2026, we’re excited to launch Laugh-A-Minute, where big laughs meet an even bigger mission.

Local supporters are stepping up as Comedy Contenders, each raising funds to support St. Jude House programs, and you help decide who takes the stage.

Every donation counts as a vote, helping contenders reach their $1,000 goal and earn a spot performing live at Hard Rock Casino on May 8, 2026. Yes, live on the Hard Rock stage!

It’s comedy with a purpose, big fun for a serious mission. Every vote helps provide safety, healing, and hope for survivors. Support your favorite contender and help cheer them all the way to the spotlight.
