Comedy VenuesThere are lots of places to see live comedy in the Philadelphia area, whether it's every night, once a week or once a year. Some of these venues are full-fledged comedy clubs, others are just bars or restaurants or small theaters that host occasional shows.

There's a quick reference of all local venues below, or you can get slightly more detailed info on venues in and outside Philly by clicking on the pictures.
