HOW TO GET BOOKED AT ASTRONAUT CITY

Astronaut City is a comedy club located in Arcadia, California, and we have a strong community of performers and guests. We have cultivated a supportive, welcoming, and social vibe that serves the San Gabriel Valley.

There are multiple ways to get to perform or to get booked at our venue:

OPEN MICS: Astronaut City has open mics every Tuesday from 7p to 9p, created by Makeshift Comedy Company (Alex Durazzo and Greg Sanchez). To perform, show up at 7p and sign up. 1 item minimum. 4 mins. The Astronaut City bookers often scout talent at the open mics.

In July, there will be an open mic, “That’s Hollywood, Baby” produced by Deja Fabro. Set of the night wins a booked spot for the following week.

BOOKED SHOWS: Astronaut City has booked shows, including its signature house show, New Joke City; and our popular independently produced shows Evil Genius Comedy, Karaoke Comedy Allstars, A Very Asian Time of Our Lives, and The Bad Erotica Show.

New Joke City is currently not open for submissions, but if you are interested in our independent shows, please contact those producers directly.

SAN GABRIEL VALLEY COMEDY FESTIVAL: The San Gabriel Valley Comedy festival will take place in August 2026. The submission period is over, but we will notify you about 2027 applications. The Astronaut City bookers scout talent from the San Gabriel Valley Comedy Festival.
