Invest In Iguana
Going into 2026, Iguana is approaching a seed-funding round.
Over the last few years, we've proven a demand for high quality, stand-up comedy in the Riviera Maya. In 2025, we ran 52 events, in 7 cities, with 31 Comedians, selling over 4000 tickets.
But we know we can do more.

Iguana Are Preparing to Own an Emerging Market
Iguana Are Preparing to Own an Emerging Market
The Caribbean is one of the fastest growing markets for English Comedy, with geographic links to the United States and historical ties to Europe, it's a prime market for growth. It's not inconceivable that in 10-20 years time, the Caribbean could be an additional market reliably visited on North American tours.

We sell out over 80% of our events, with a 100% success rate in our 'Peak Season' (November - April). We have a strategic investor on-board already that handles all of our marketing, two comedian founders with direct links to the US, Mexican and UK comedy scenes, fantastic data coverage, and a backlog of comedians who want to perform with us.
But we currently operate our shows in a variety of venues around Quintana Roo. This has allowed us to remain flexible, but there are no venues that are purpose built for comedy or live performance at all. English and Spanish comedy is operated almost entirely from restaurants, bars and sometimes, Taquerias.
This caps our ability to sell tickets to venues that are available, this caps our brand exposure via lack of physical location, and this caps our ticket prices and quantities (there's only so much we can ask for when convincing people to sit without air conditioning under a Palapa in June in the Caribbean).

What We Need
Essentially? A venue.
Our goal is to open an Iguana venue in the heart of Playa Del Carmen, specifically fitted and designed for live performance.
Our goal is an 80-120 capacity micro-theatre, that will allow us to improve the quality of our shows, work with local promoters in English and Spanish and establish as a base to grow and expand into Cancun, Belize and other Caribbean territories.
