🎟️ Please purchase General Admission (GA) tickets via the link below — no refunds, so grab yours early!
🅿️ Parking: Options range from budget to convenient —- Flat lot: Prairie Lot, 411 Caroline St (~$10–15)
- Garages: 803 Fannin Garage (24 hrs) or Theater District Garage, 500 Prairie St (~$15–20)
💵 Rough budget for the night: ~$50–80 all-in per person (GA ticket + parking + 2-drink minimum + tip). Add ~$15–25 more if joining us for appetizers beforehand.
🍸 Drink note: This is a brand-new club, so we don't have full food/drink details yet. Many comedy clubs have a 2-drink minimum, so budget for that just in case.
🤝 Meet the group first! Since a lot of us haven't met yet, let's gather at 7:00 PM at The Moonshiners (1000 Prairie St, right next door to the venue). We'll grab a quick appetizer and a soda/lemonade, get to know each other, and then walk over together for doors. If the weather's nice, let's grab the patio!
I'm working with the owner to try to get our group seated together, and I'll do my best to make that happen — but I can't guarantee it, so please don't count on it when planning.👉 Get Tickets
Once you've purchased your ticket, please send me a direct message on Meetup or drop a comment below this post so I can get an accurate headcount to give the owner for our seating arrangements.A heads-up: this is standup comedy with up-and-coming performers, so material can include mature language and adult themes — comedy clubs are generally not for the easily offended. If that's not your scene, this one might not be the best fit, and that's totally okay!
See you there! 🍻😂12 attendees
