A.G. White’s Taco Backyard Comedy Series Returns June 5

Season 3 Kicks Off June 5

Brooklyn’s summer lineup just got funnier. On June 5, Comedian A.G. White returns to East Brooklyn with Season 3 of her Taco Backyard Comedy Series. Announced in a lively Instagram post full of taco and drink emojis, White invited followers to “Bet” on a spring and summer of laughs, food and neighborhood vibes. Tickets ($20) and a two-item minimum apply; link is in her bio.

Bi-weekly Thursdays Under The Lights

Hosted in the spacious East Coast Street Tacos backyard at 900 New Jersey Ave., this bi-weekly Thursday night event pairs guilty pleasures and the gift of laughter. Past Instagram promos have emphasized the series motto—“GUILTY PLEASURE MEETS THE GIFT OF LAUGHTER.” Rochelle King Cudjoe, Spy Daman and MC Fame Fortune round out the production crew, ensuring a lineup of comics from network TV to club standouts.

White’s original announcement caption read: “BROOKLYN, NY – they said Tacos. You said Comedy. You said Backyard, Outside. We said Bet. SEASON 3 THURSDAY JUNE 5. ALL SPRING AND SUMMER. Let’s go! TICKET LINK IN MY BIO, YO! Powered by @rochellekingcudjoe @comedianagwhite @eastcoaststreettacos @therealspydaman.” The accompanying photo shows White cracking up with a mic in hand, string lights overhead and a taco cart in the background—setting the scene for laid-back outdoor entertainment.

Spotlight On Local Flavors And Merch

Each show features East Coast Street Tacos’ signature menu of street-style tacos, burritos and chilled beverages. Fans can also score one-of-a-kind merch: recent posts highlight collaborative T-shirt drops by R.MendozaDesign and Loren’s NYC, riffing on the series logo and bold color palette. These limited-edition tees sell quickly, so early arrival is recommended.

Lineups That Blend Stars And Rising Acts

A.G. White curates each bill with guests from major networks alongside emerging stand-up talent. Previous Season 3 teasers tagged performers like Freddie Ricks, Talent Da Comedian and Kenny Will. In one throwback post, White credited comedy pioneer Damon Williams for shaping her Brooklyn roots: “Brooklyn. 15 years ago. Is this Damon Williams? My production knows so. Thank you @damonwilliamscomedy. Keep on keeping on, PIONEER.” Expect nods to hip-hop rhythm, Harlem throwbacks and fresh voices every month.

Community Vibes And Accessibility

Beyond laughs, the backyard series doubles as a neighborhood gathering spot. With string lights, picnic tables and “laugh, eat, enjoy” branding, the vibe is part block party, part comedy club. A.G. White’s team provides QR codes for easy ticket scanning; group rates are available at (347) 869-4746. For fans outside Brooklyn, neighboring shows in Rochester and Accokeek, MD, signal the tour is expanding, but June Thursdays stay home-base.

Fans have praised the series online with hashtags like #Brooklyn, #EastBrooklyn, #Tacos, #Funny and #Jokes. The recurring format keeps things fresh: surprise guests appear, DJs spin between sets, and occasional theme nights pop up—look for hints on White’s feed as the season unfolds.

The series keeps ticket prices at a sweet spot and ties in local partners like underground art collectives and emerging cocktail brands. Food trucks, photobooths and community tables have turned the backyard into a block-long comedy picnic. White’s conversational hosting has been likened to “a friend cracking jokes in your backyard,” making fans feel at home.

While the main series runs through the summer, White also drops one-off gigs around the region—like her two-show night at BNG Tavern in Accokeek (May 17) or her homage to Adele Givens in support of “the Queen of Comedy.” These side events build momentum for the Thursday nights at New Jersey Ave.

White’s blend of sensory details—taco aromas, mid-set drink runs and laughter echoing under the stars—has earned the series a reputation as Brooklyn’s “guilty pleasure.” With Season 3 underway, she promises fresh themes, surprise callers and guest cameos that will bookend spring into late summer.

Word travels fast when the line wraps around the block. If you’ve got plans for Thursday nights, clear your calendar, grab your crew and head to East Coast Street Tacos. This spring and summer, tacos and comedy are the best bet in Brooklyn.
