Tip #2: What is the Audience Demographic?

Another thing you will want to take note of when looking for the right comedy club for you is the audience demographic.

However, they are very different audiences.

In order to discover this information, you will most likely have to frequent some places to check out the vibe. Google reviews and yelp can sometimes help in this area, but sometimes you need to check out a place for yourself in person.

Tip #3: How Much Does it Cost for the Comedy Club?

If you are looking for a comedy club to attend on a regular basis, you are probably going to look for something that is a little more affordable. You might be willing to pay a larger amount for an a-list celebrity who might be performing.

Maybe you are thinking of hosting a comedy club night yourself. Find the right venue for this event. You are most likely able to rent from a current club for some a certain fee. However, you could also look at some venue spaces to see if renting a room might be the better option. All of this would depend on the cost and how much you are willing to pay.

Tip #4: What are the Amenities and Extras Offered?

If you are just attending a comedy club, you will probably want to make sure there are obvious things available to you as the guests. Are you looking to have a meal with the show? Then you will want a club that is somehow connected with a restaurant and bar. You will want to make sure the seating is good for you in addition to the parking. (Parking can be a pain in Los Angeles!)

If you are looking to rent a space, you will want to ask the event staff what is available to you before you sign any contracts. This would include the seating and furniture, rooms offered, and venue staff available to you. All these things are important when choosing the right venue for your comedy show.
