  Bushwick Comedy Club · $5

  NYC's biggest weekly stand-up competition, where the crowd's favorite comic walks off with the cash.

Bushwick Comedy Club is a dedicated stand-up room in the middle of the neighborhood, which makes it a rare thing in Brooklyn: an actual comedy club, not a bar that clears a corner on Tuesdays. It runs a steady schedule of shows and competitions, and it keeps tickets cheap enough that a comedy night here is one of the better-value evenings in Bushwick.

What it is

Bushwick Comedy Club is a comedy venue focused on stand-up, hosting nightly and weekly shows with rotating lineups of local and touring comics. It is the kind of small, dedicated room where the crowd is close and the sets move fast.

The Comedy Lottery and weekly shows

The club is known for recurring shows, including competition nights where comics put their names in and the audience's favorite walks away with a cash prize. These weekly formats are cheap, high-energy, and a good way to see a lot of comedians in one sitting.

What to expect

Expect low ticket prices, a small room, and a mix of polished sets and works-in-progress. It is comedy the way the neighborhood does it, unfussy and close to the stage. Come early for a decent seat.
