Atlanta’s Dad’s Garage returns to Roswell with BlackGround, their all–African American comedy troupe in a laugh-out-loud celebration of Blackness!

Come celebrate, laugh, and enjoy the perfect complement to a joyous day of Roswell Roots events. Don’t miss this unforgettable experience where comedy meets culture and laughter meets legacy.
Content Advisory: This show is recommended for teens and adults. May contain adult themes, inuendo and language.
Roswell Roots Festival 2026 marks a historic milestone as we celebrate the 25th anniversary of this community-wide, month-long festival honoring our diverse community and celebrating Black History Month.
