Comics Come Home, the longest-running comedy fundraiser in the nation, is back for its 26th annual benefit, taking place on November 12, 2022 at TD Garden.
The comedy fundraiser was founded by Hockey Hall of Famer and Boston Bruins President Cam Neely and actor/comedian Denis Leary best known for his role in Rescue Me amongst others. Comics Come Home has raised over $13 million since inception. The funds raised during Comics Come Home are critical in helping the Foundation’s mission to provide comfort, support and hope to adult and pediatric cancer patients and their families.
This year’s show is hosted by Denis Leary and includes A-list comedians Lenny Clarke, Chris Distefano, Jimmy Fallon, Sam Jay, Robert Kelly, John Mulaney, Carolyn Plummer, Roy Wood Jr. Additional comedians may be announced and details are subject to change, so we encourage following @CamNeelyFdn on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter #CCH26 for the latest updates.

Host Denis Leary stated, “We are so pumped to be back after two years and all the comics and musicians can’t wait to rock TD Garden with gigantic laughs again.“
100 percent of the event proceeds go directly to The Cam Neely Foundation’s latest venture, The Neely Integrative Center. Announced during CCH25, this innovative state of the art center in Boston will advance the research, education and science based integrative care and nutrition access for cancer and autoimmune. It will be the first of its kind in the United States and is led in partnership with The Tufts Friedman School of Nutrition and Science Policy. The Foundation’s goal is to raise enough philanthropic support to fully fund this capital project in the next two years, which is estimated to cost more than $8M to complete. Founder and president Cam Neely stated, “Denis and I are excited to bring the community back together for some much-needed laugh therapy. Now more than ever, cancer patients and their families need the support of our foundation, and it is through this important annual event that we raise the necessary funds to make an immediate and tangible impact on cancer patients and their families in the city of Boston and beyond.”
