About comedy shows in Tampa / St. Pete
The Tampa / St. Pete comedy calendar tracks live stand-up, improv, sketch, open mics, and touring headliners across the whole metro — Tampa, Ybor City, Carrollwood, St. Pete, Clearwater, and the surrounding Pinellas and Hillsborough rooms. Every listing pulls a real date, venue, start time, and ticket link, and the calendar refreshes weekly so you're always looking at what's actually on stage this week.
Tampa Bay runs comedy seven nights a week. Club anchors like Side Splitters in Carrollwood and the Tampa Improv and Funny Bone in Ybor City book national headliners most weekends, while indie stages such as The Gimmick and The Commodore keep Ybor's late-night, alt, and BYOB shows going. Across the bay, Spitfire Comedy House and the St. Pete Comedy Club keep Pinellas County laughing with showcases, improv, and weekly mics.
Use the filters to narrow by night (tonight, this weekend, this week), by type (stand-up, improv, open mic), or by area (Tampa vs. St. Pete). Looking for something specific? Jump to comedy shows tonight, this weekend, open mics, stand-up, or improv using the links below.
Ybor City is the walkable heart of Tampa's comedy nightlife, with stages packed along 7th and 8th Avenues. This page tracks every upcoming comedy show in the historic district — national touring headliners, indie showcases, improv, and open mics — updated weekly.
The big rooms here are the Tampa Improv and Funny Bone, which book the touring comedians you'll recognize from specials and late-night TV. For something more independent, The Gimmick and The Commodore run a steady mix of indie stand-up showcases, alt-comedy nights, and some of the area's best open mics — the rooms where Tampa's scene actually gets built.
Ybor City is perfect for a full comedy night because everything is so walkable: catch an early show, grab a drink, and walk to a late one. Parking can get tight on weekends — use the public garages and give yourself extra time, especially around 7th and 8th Avenues. Most shows run on a cover charge, but the open mics and some indie nights are free or just a few dollars.
Want the whole city? See all Tampa comedy shows, or head across the bay for St. Pete comedy shows. You can also just see what's on tonight and this weekend across the region.
