We’re re-imagining this year’s event  as a virtual experience!

Since 1987, SRF’s Cool Comedy • Hot Cuisine has been fortunate to have had some of the world’s finest performing artists generously donate their time and talents to help raise millions of dollars for scleroderma research and increase awareness about this chronic, debilitating and sometimes deadly autoimmune disease affecting thousands of people worldwide.
But today’s unprecedented times call for unprecedented innovation, so this year we’re reimagining the 2020 event as a live VIRTUAL experience on YouTube!
The online broadcast will deliver more Cool Comedy than ever before, featuring appearances from these world-class comedians and performers:
Jason Alexander, Jack Black, Reggie Brown, Bill Burr, Kelly Clarkson, Jim Gaffigan, Jeff Garlin, Nikki Glaser, Regina Hall, Ken Jeong, Queen Latifah, George Lopez, Howie Mandel, John Mayer, Joel McHale, Pat Monahan, Ray Romano, Jeff Ross, Sarah Silverman, John Stamos, and many more to come!
The show is being executive produced by Bob Saget and Emmy Award-winning producer Joel Gallen, with support from Studio71.
That’s not all—this event also includes:
  • Gourmet food & wine gift boxes 
  • Mobile bidding on silent auction items
  • Potential for global viewing audience

We can’t wait for you to join us! Register today to receive a private viewing link prior to the show.
