## [BOOK HERE!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/english-stand-up-comedy-show-monday-night-laughs-the-comedy-pub-tickets-0NML7Q?ref=MeetUp) Monday Night Laughs: Vienna’s English stand-up open mic! Watch & perform every Monday at The Comedy Pub. Free entry, cozy vibe, endless laug Vienna’s English Stand-Up Comedy Open Mic – Every Monday at The Comedy Pub ## 😂 Mondays Don’t Have to Suck The weekend might be over — but the laughter doesn’t stop. Welcome to **Monday Night Laughs**, Vienna’s cozy and community-driven **English stand-up comedy open mic**, where locals, expats, and travelers come together to kick off the week with big laughs and good vibes. Every Monday night, *The Comedy Pub Vienna* turns into a creative playground for comedians and comedy lovers alike. Whether it’s your first time at a show or your tenth, you’ll feel right at home. Forget Netflix. Forget the Monday blues. This is your weekly reminder that laughter fixes everything — especially on a Monday. ## 🎭 What Is *Monday Night Laughs*? It’s not a fancy showcase or a big-ticket headliner night. It’s something much better — it’s *real*. Here, the mic is open, the drinks are cold, and the laughter is honest. You’ll see comedians from all over the world — from total beginners testing their first five minutes to experienced performers working out new jokes for their next tour. No two shows are ever the same. One moment you’ll hear a joke about Austrian bureaucracy, the next about dating disasters in Spain or cultural shocks in Tokyo. It’s raw, spontaneous, and absolutely unpredictable — the way live comedy is meant to be. And because it’s all happening in English, the night draws a wonderfully mixed crowd: locals, internationals, and everyone in between. ## 🎙️ For Performers If you’ve ever thought, *“I could do that,”* this is your sign. *Monday Night Laughs* is one of Vienna’s most supportive and encouraging open mics for new comedians. No judgment, no pressure — just a room full of people who love to laugh and want you to succeed. It’s the perfect place to try stand-up for the first time, or to test new material before your next big show. The vibe is friendly, relaxed, and full of creative energy — comedy at its purest form. Sign-up is open before the show — come early, grab a drink, and put your name down. Who knows? You might be the next crowd favorite. ## 🎤 For the Audience If you just want to watch, you’re in for a treat. This is one of Vienna’s most authentic live experiences — a place where you can laugh, relax, and see the future stars of stand-up before they blow up. You’ll witness comedy in its rawest form: jokes being born, ideas taking shape, and performers finding their voice. Sometimes it’s perfect, sometimes it’s weird — but it’s *always* fun. Grab a beer, find a seat, and enjoy a night full of unpredictable laughter. ## 🍻 The Atmosphere The Comedy Pub isn’t just a venue — it’s a community. It’s the heart of Vienna’s growing stand-up scene, a space where people come together to connect, perform, and laugh without judgment. The audience cheers each performer, the comedians support one another, and the whole night feels like hanging out with friends who happen to be hilarious. It’s the kind of Monday night you’ll want to make a tradition. ## 📍 The Venue: The Comedy Pub Vienna 📍 **Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Vienna** Nestled in the heart of Vienna’s 5th district, *The Comedy Pub* is the city’s only dedicated stand-up comedy club — a cozy Irish-style bar with warm lighting, a friendly crowd, and the perfect stage for laughter. 🍻 A full bar with great drinks 🎭 Intimate setting with front-row energy 🌍 A melting pot of locals, expats & travelers 🪑 First come, first seated – so come early! ## 📅 Event Details 📆 **Every Monday** 🚪 **Doors open:** 19:30 🎤 **Show starts:** 20:00 📍 **The Comedy Pub**, Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Vienna 🗣️ **Language:** English 💶 **Entry:** Free entry – donations welcome (if you laugh, you pay in karma… or cash 😉) ## ✨ Why You’ll Love It Because this is what real comedy feels like. No lights, no filters, no fake laughs — just honest jokes, good people, and that unbeatable live energy that you can’t stream. **Monday Night Laughs** is more than a show — it’s a community, a creative space, and the friendliest way to start your week in Vienna. So come for the comedy, stay for the connections, and leave with sore cheeks from laughing. Monday Night Laughs: Vienna’s English stand-up open mic! Watch & perform every Monday at The Comedy Pub. Free entry, cozy vibe, endless laughs. #MondayNightLaughs #ComedyVienna #OpenMicVienna #StandUpVienna #EnglishComedyVienna #TheComedyPub #ViennaEvents #ViennaLaughs #FreeComedyVienna #ViennaNightlife #ComedyClubVienna #ExpatsInVienna #FunnyVienna #ViennaThingsToDo #LiveComedyVienna #InternationalComedy #ViennaLOL #MondayComedyVienna

**Deutschsprachiges Comedy Open Mic in Wien. Lachflash statt Tatort – der perfekte Sonntagabend mit neuen Comedians & freiem Eintritt.** # [HOL DIR DEINE TICKETS HERE!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/lachflash-comedy-open-mic-dein-sonntag-thecomedypub-endet-mit-lachen-tickets-8QGW97?ref=MeetUp) Sonntagabend und du überlegst, ob du dich mit Netflix aufs Sofa wirfst oder dich schon auf den Montag vorbereitest? Falsch gedacht! 😏 Wien hat jetzt eine bessere Antwort: **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic**. Jeden Sonntag um 18:00 wird *The Comedy Pub* zur Bühne für deutschsprachige Stand-up-Comedy – roh, echt, witzig, manchmal absurd und immer überraschend. Der perfekte Wochenend-Ausklang für alle, die nicht aufhören wollen zu lachen. **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist das große Finale des Wochenendes. Hier bekommst du einen wilden Mix aus **Newcomern**, die ihre ersten Schritte auf der Bühne machen, und **erfahrenen Comedians**, die neues Material ausprobieren. Manchmal entstehen hier Jokes, die in ein Jahr später in Specials oder Fernsehsendungen landen. Manchmal scheitert ein Gag glorreich – und genau das sorgt für die lautesten Lacher des Abends. Mit **vielen Comedians pro Show** (oft mehr als 10!) erwartet dich ein abwechslungsreicher Abend: * Überraschende neue Stimmen, die dich mit ganz frischem Humor überraschen * Kreative Experimente, die kein Mainstream-Comedy-Club sich trauen würde * Scharfe Pointen von erfahrenen Comedians, die genau wissen, wie man eine Crowd zum Toben bringt Kein Sonntag gleicht dem anderen. Jede Show hat ein komplett neues Line-up – das macht **Lachflash** zu einer Serie, die man immer wieder besuchen kann. Und das Beste: Hier ist das Publikum nicht nur dabei, sondern ein aktiver Teil des Abends. Deine Lacher, dein Applaus, dein Staunen – all das beeinflusst, wie die Comedians ihre Jokes entwickeln. ## 🤔 Was ist ein Open Mic? Ein Open Mic ist das Herzstück der Stand-up-Szene. Es ist keine perfekt inszenierte Show – sondern ein Ort, an dem Comedy entsteht. Hier probieren Comedians ihre neuesten Texte aus, feilen am Timing, improvisieren mit dem Publikum und lernen, was funktioniert. Das heißt: * Manchmal knallt ein Joke sofort – und alle feiern. * Manchmal floppt eine Pointe – und genau daraus wird ein unvergesslicher Moment. * Immer aber ist es spannend, nahbar und authentisch. Wenn du echte Comedy erleben willst – ohne Filter, ohne Drehbuch, ohne Sicherungsnetz – dann ist ein Open Mic genau dein Ding. Und **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist Wiens neue Adresse dafür am Sonntag. ## 🍻 The Comedy Pub – Das Zuhause der Stand-up-Comedy in Wien Die Show findet im **The Comedy Pub** (Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Wien) statt – Wiens erster und einziger echter Comedy-Club. Während andere Bars ab und zu Comedy hosten, ist das hier das Zentrum einer Szene. Oben erwartet dich ein gemütlicher Irish Pub mit Drinks, Snacks und freundlicher Atmosphäre. Unten im Altbaukeller – oder im offenen Pub-Bereich – wird jede Woche Stand-up gespielt, getestet und gefeiert. Die Location ist bekannt für ihr **nahbares, internationales Publikum** und ihr warmes, intimes Ambiente. Und das Beste: mit der U-Bahn-Station **Kettenbrückengasse (U4)** direkt vor der Tür bist du in wenigen Minuten mitten im Geschehen. ## 💡 Eintritt frei – Spenden willkommen Comedy lebt von Community. Damit möglichst viele Menschen Stand-up erleben können, ist der Eintritt frei. Aber: Lachen ist wertvoll – und wenn du einen **Lachflash** hattest, dann zeig das! Am Ende der Show geht ein Hut rum, in den du geben kannst, was es dir wert war. Fair, direkt und die ehrlichste Form von Applaus. ## 🎟️ Regeln fürs Publikum Damit die Show für alle ein Erlebnis wird, bitten wir dich um ein paar einfache Dinge: * Sei pünktlich – die Türen öffnen 17:30, Showstart ist 18:00. * Hör zu und respektiere die Bühne – Comedians geben hier alles. * Lachen ist Pflicht – und zwar ohne Zurückhaltung! * Kein Heckling – die Gags kommen von den Profis. 😉 * Spenden sind willkommen – support your local comedy! ## 🎉 Warum Sonntag? Viele denken: Sonntagabend = Couch, Serien, früh ins Bett. Aber warum so trist? **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist der perfekte Gegenentwurf: eine Show voller Energie, Lachen und Überraschungen – bevor der Montag wieder ernst wird. * Es ist der **perfekte Wochenend-Ausklang** – Comedy statt Tatort! * Ein Fixpunkt, der dich mit einem Lächeln in die Woche schickt. * Ein Raum, in dem du neue Comedians entdeckst, die du sonst nie gesehen hättest. * Und: die einzige regelmäßige deutsche Comedy-Show am Sonntag in Wien – im einzigen Comedy Club der Stadt. Kurz gesagt: Sonntag gehört jetzt nicht mehr dem Montagsblues, sondern dem Lachflash. #LachflashComedy #ComedyWien #StandupWien #OpenMicWien #DeutschComedy #WienLacht #ComedyNightWien #ComedyClubWien #StandupComedyWien #LachenInWien #ComediansWien #LiveComedyWien #ComedyFansWien #ComedySzeneWien #ComedyShowWien #WienEvents #WienNightlife #ComedyLovers #WienOpenMic #GermanComedy #ComedyVienna #ViennaComedy #StandupVienna #ViennaEvents #ViennaNightlife #ViennaOpenMic #ViennaStandup #ViennaFun #ViennaUnderground #ComedyLifeWien #WienHumor #StandupSceneWien #LaughsInVienna #ComedySpotWien #FunnyInWien #ViennaLaughs #ViennaLOL #SundayVienna #WienSonntag #WeekendFinale #ComedyWeekendVienna #SonntagComedy

Come join us to discuss our July pick "Tusk Love" by Thea Guanzon! Book description: A merchant’s daughter who yearns for adventure gets more than she bargained for when she falls for a broodingly handsome stranger in this saucy romantasy from the New York Times bestselling author of The Hurricane Wars. “A true delight of a book! Spicy and heartfelt—this one is a winner all around.”—Katee Robert, author of Neon Gods As the daughter of an ambitious merchant, Guinevere’s path has been predetermined: marry into a noble house of the Dwendalian Empire, raise her family’s station, and live quietly as a lordling’s obedient wife. But Guinevere longs for a life unbounded by expectations, for freedom and passion and adventure. Those distant dreams become a sudden reality when her caravan is beset by bandits, leaving her guards slain and Guinevere stranded alone on the dangerous Amber Road. Her only chance of survival is to travel alongside Oskar, the aloof half-orc who saved her during the attack. Unlike Guinevere, Oskar’s path is not so set in stone. With his mother dead and his apprenticeship abandoned, all that’s left is a long, lonely walk to a land he’s never seen to find family he’s never met. The last thing he needs is a spoiled waif like Guinevere slowing him down—even if the spark between them sizzles with promise. Despite his cold exterior, Oskar is brave and thoughtful and unlike anyone Guinevere has ever met. And while Guinevere may be sheltered, she brings out a softness in him that he has never dared to feel before. As the flames of their passion grow, they realize that soon they’ll need to choose between their expected destinations or their blossoming romance. Written by New York Times bestselling author Thea Guanzon at the behest of Critical Role’s Jester Lavorre, Tusk Love brings the most romantic story on Exandrian bookshelves to life.

After Lucy is found wandering the streets, covered in her best friend Savvy’s blood, everyone thinks she is a murderer. Lucy and Savvy were the golden girls of their small Texas town: pretty, smart, and enviable. Lucy married a dream guy with a big ring and an even bigger new home. Savvy was the social butterfly loved by all, and if you believe the rumors, especially popular with the men in town. It’s been years since that horrible night, a night Lucy can’t remember anything about, and she has since moved to LA and started a new life. But now the phenomenally huge hit true crime podcast "Listen for the Lie," and its too-good looking host Ben Owens, have decided to investigate Savvy’s murder for the show’s second season. Lucy is forced to return to the place she vowed never to set foot in again to solve her friend’s murder, even if she is the one that did it. The truth is out there, if we just listen.
