COVID-19 safety measures
Safety measures instituted by event host. Meetup is not responsible for ensuring that precautions are followed.
What we’re about
A great place to find live Asheville’s live comedy performances and other local comedy fans!
We’ll be posting all the Asheville-area stand-up comedy shows in the area (assuming I know about them). We’ve met several of you already, and we’d love to meet more of you!
Asheville has a lot of great comedy. There’s touring comics performing in larger venues. Asheville is also home to a thriving local scene with great local comics performing in smaller venues and opening for touring comics. There is also a great selection of open mics, so if you ever have the itch to try something out, you’ll have plenty of opportunities.
