Nashville has become a popular stop along the comedy tours of huge acts like Dave Chappelle, Amy Schumer, Shane Gillis, Heather McMahan, and more. We’re even lucky enough to claim Nate Bargatze as one of our own, as he’s famously from Nashville.

With local venues like Zanies, Third Coast Comedy Club, Backyard Comedy, and The East Room, you can catch comedy almost any night of the week. Check their calendars!
