All aboard! Colin Jost<\/a> and Pete Davidson’s<\/a> ferry is transforming into the Snapple Island Ferry into a comedy club for one night only.<\/p>\n

Back in 2022, Jost and Davidson made headlines <\/a>as part of an investment group that purchased the decommissioned John F. Kennedy Staten Island Ferry via auction for $280,000. Since then, the once and former Saturday Night Live<\/a> stars (Jost joined SNL<\/a> in the writers’ room in 2005, while Davidson was a cast member from 2014 to 2022) have put their boat to some use. For example, the ferry was the venue for the 2025 Tommy Hilfiger New York Fashion Week show<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But on September 17, the friends are set to host their slightly-used Staten Island Ferry’s biggest event yet: the Snapple Island Ferry Comedy Show, featuring a to-be-announced lineup featuring six rising stars in comedy.<\/p>\n

Colin Jost and Pete Davidson’s ferry will be a comedy club for one night<\/p>\n

The Snapple Island Comedy show promises to give New Yorkers “an unexpectedly refreshing break from the daily grind,” per the official press release.<\/p>\n

Transforming the iconic ferry into a fully-functioning floating venue has been a priority for the two friends ever since they purchased it.<\/p>\n

“Turning the ferry into a floating comedy club with Snapple makes more sense than anything else we considered, and it still doesn’t make much sense,\u201d Davidson said an statement. “Either way, we’re giving people a chance to take a break, have a laugh, and do something completely ridiculous with us.”<\/p>\n

During Davidson’s February 2025 visit to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon<\/a>, he revealed that the ferry is “a lot closer than people think” to being fully operational. He shared that their co-investors \u2014 a list that includes The Stand Restaurant & Comedy Club owner Paul Italia \u2014 planned a multi-use entertainment complex for the boat down the road.<\/p>\n

“You know, it’s only been two years and people are like, ‘I guess it’s dead,'” Davidson explained to Jimmy Fallon<\/a>. “And it’s like… We need like $100 million! Give us a second!”<\/p>\n

In 2025, Jost told People<\/a> that the ferry “is absolutely the dumbest and least thought-through purchase I’ve ever made in my life.” But it seems the comedy club dream is finally becoming a reality.<\/p>\n
