Get ready to explore, laugh, and compete your way through one of Dallas’ most colorful neighborhoods- and the home of Dallas Indie Comedy Fest 2026! A Very Indie Scavenger Hunt is a playful race through the streets of Bishop Arts District and is by the Indie Lab Creative team, producers of Dallas Indie Comedy Fest.

Teams of up to three (1-3 allowed on each team) will race the clock (and each other) to track down iconic murals, hidden artwork, beloved local shops, neighborhood quirks, and a few surprises along the way. Along the route, teams will complete 20 photo and video challenges and race back to homebase to claim all the glory 🏆 🤳🤩

Serving as a small fundraiser while also kicking off the two-week countdown to Dallas Indie Comedy Fest 2026, this event is equal parts adventure, fest jest, and community hang. Whether you’re hyper-competitive or just here for the vibes, it’s a great excuse to explore, be goofy with friends, and celebrate indie comedy in Dallas.
