For those seeking some comic relief, CityScape Phoenix will be the go-to destination during “The All Things Comedy” comedy festival, taking place Thursday, October 26 through Sunday, October 29. With over a dozen headliners at spots like Stand Up Live, Copper Blues and The Oprheum Theater, the festival will also feature a number of pop-up performances along with shows at Tempe Improv.
Located in the heart of Downtown Phoenix, CityScape will serve as the headquarters of humor as fans enjoy the multi-venue, stand-up comedy and podcast festival for its inaugural year. All weekend long, guests can watch as comedians stream their podcasts live at The All Things Comedy Pop Up Pod located in the former Jos A. Bank space at CityScape. Then on Saturday, Patriots Park will transform into an outdoor green room and lounge where comedy buffs can grab a drink and chill outside while they watch movies, play games and hang before the Doug Benson and Bill Burr shows.
Additionally, the Tempe Improv will also host two live podcast and standup shows featuring Harland Williams and Steve Rannazzisi.
LUSTRE Rooftop Bar at Kimpton Hotel Palomar Phoenix is also getting in on the fun by hosting its “Call in Sick to Work” after party with Bert Kreischer on Friday, October 27 following his show at Stand Up Live. Plus, John Holmberg from KUPD’s “Holmberg’s Morning Sickness” will be taping his podcast with various ATC Artists with live music and a DJ to close out the night under the stars.
