Choose the right weekend show

Start with the kind of night you want: a touring headliner, a local showcase, an improv or sketch performance, an open mic, or a smaller neighborhood room. Browse the weekend shows below, then open the calendar to compare more Friday-through-Sunday options.

Open a show for the venue, neighborhood, price, time, and official ticket link. If dinner, parking, or a second show is part of the plan, compare nearby rooms before choosing.

Make time for dinner and a late show

Friday and Saturday carry the most late shows and touring club inventory. Sunday often shifts toward earlier performances, recurring local programs, open mics, and end-of-weekend experiments.

Confirm admission rules before leaving. Two-item minimums, BYOB policies, age restrictions, reserved seating, and parking vary by venue and sometimes by show.
