Comedy Cellar (Las Vegas) Live
The longest-running comedy club in New York, Comedy Cellar is where audiences discovered such giants of stand-up as Ray Romano, Chris Rock, Jon Stewart, Amy Schumer and Dave Chappelle. Now fans in Las Vegas can discover more future stars — and catch established favorites, too — at the Comedy Cellar's thrilling new West Coast location.
Opened in 2018 as a 300-seat venue at Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino, the Comedy Cellar offers the same intimacy and energy as the fabled club that inspired it. In creating the new outpost with Caesars Entertainment, Comedy Cellar owner Noam Dworman has replicated many of the original's most distinctive features as well as its special atmosphere.
Comedy fans can expect to see great sets by veterans of the Cellar's two New York clubs along with the best in new national and international talent. They may also be lucky enough to be there for spontaneous performances by comedy superstars playing elsewhere on the Strip.
Comedy Cellar (Las Vegas) Background
The Comedy Cellar's history began in 1982, when comic Bill Grundfest established a new club underneath a Greenwich Village restaurant. With a more intimate feel than many of New York's comedy hotspots, the Comedy Cellar soon became not just a space for the scene's best new talents to perform but a place where they wanted to hang out, too.
The roster of comedians who became regulars at the Cellar includes Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock, Jon Stewart and Aziz Ansari. It's where Jerry Seinfeld chose to shoot much of his 2002 documentary Comedian. It can also be seen in stage segments in Louis C.K.'s series Louie and Chris Rock's film Top Five.
In 2018, Noam Dworman — who inherited the Cellar from his father Manny — opened the club's first West Coast location in the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino. Closely replicating the original's look and atmosphere, it has become the place to see the country's funniest performers in the kind of warm, intimate room that comedians themselves love best.
Comedy Cellar is always a good time! Great comedians and great entertainment!
They all had us laughing. Even had an additional comedian who was not on the bill. We were offered drinks as soon as we were seated and it was an inexpensive great time!
Comics were hilarious especially Trixx and Alex Kumin. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The bartenders were quite funny themselves. Will definitely be back!
We had a great time at the comedy cellar. There were 5 different comedians and a host so to speak. It was a quaint venue and I doubt there is a bad seat. Worth the money to see some entertainment and take a break from the hustle and bustle.
The venue and show were amazing!! Comedians had the entire crowd rolling! Only problem was the list of comedians that we’re suppose to perform was not who we actually got, but every comedian was great so it didn’t really matter!
I did not expect the show to be great. Very Funny had me in tears!!??
We saw 4 or 5 comics. The audience was not close to being full. 2 of the comics were really strong and gave us lots of laughs. We still talk about some of their jokes days after. Overall, a good night. Also I am glad there is not a drink minimum.
It was very funny. Thank you for the experience. A
Had 4 comedians and none disappointed! Only complaint is the women's restroom had only 1 stall.
We were rather disappointed with the Comedy Cellar. One of the comics in particular was just not funny. The theater was not clean and the people around were not helpful.
