Gotham Comedy Club

208 W 23rd St, New York, NY10011
Open Mic

Gotham Comedy Club at 208 W 23rd Street in Chelsea is New York City's most polished stand-up experience. Founded in 1996, the club has produced multiple Comedy Central specials and is known for consistently booking nationally touring headliners with announced lineups. The room seats approximately 300 people with excellent sightlines from every seat, full dinner service, and high production values. Unlike the Comedy Cellar, Gotham announces its lineup in advance — you know exactly who you're seeing before you buy tickets. The club is the best choice in NYC for a date night, a special occasion, or a first-time visitor who wants a guaranteed quality experience. Tickets run $18–$35 plus a two-item minimum. Shows run Thursday through Sunday, with weekend shows selling out in advance.

Gotham Comedy delivering! Listen, we all know NYC is spoiled for choice when it comes to solid comedy spots but I absolutely rate Gotham as top notch! I visit from LA annually and make sure to fit in a comedy night here because they kill it, consistently. Whether you’re in the Vintage room downstairs for a more intimate experience or the larger main room upstairs, it’s a hoot! From being seated to drinks orders, the team are dedicated and welcoming. And of course the best part, the stars themselves. Every single act was unique and LOL hilarious, I couldn’t even pick a favorite because they were all so fantastic in their own right. I love coming out to support the local comedians and highly recommend Gotham Comedy Club for a fun filled date night! Thanks guys, well done 👏

If you ever need to hold a private event, a fundraiser, or even a cabaret, not just a comedy night, Gotham Comedy Club Should be on your list of venues to check out. They bend over backwards to accommodate you, and make sure your event comes off without a hitch. Everybody is wonderful to work with, and New York Theater Barn has had a fantastic experience each time, as has the National Kidney Foundation. The sound system is terrific, the lighting is wonderful, and I look forward to having more events there in the future.
