Laughter and more Laughter

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.

This show was a blast! We saw 5 comedians the night we went. All of the seating is great but we were near the stage. The staff were great, will definitely go back when in Vegas again!
It was our first time at the Comedy Cellar and wont be our last. We were looking for something fun to do last minute and got tickets. Great show. Great atmosphere. Cant wait to return.
We ALWAYS have a great time here! Have never seen a comedian I didn’t like at one of your shows! We come here every time we are in Vegas!
Liked four out of five. Girl hosting was a hoot. The guy talking about hitting the change counter had us gasping for air. Weird trying to find it…Casino was saaad, parking was well lit. Good crowd. Great value ( we’ve hit some comedy shows in SF) this was comprable. Thx
Great choreography, fun costume changes, ALL the girls were spot on, made it fun to watch. Lovely voices, liked the “Don’t Mess w/Bill audience participation. MaitreD in hat was adorable. All in all a very good show entertaining, great value!
This was a great evening. Big variety of performers and they were all excellent.

Went on Valentines day and had so much fun. All comedians were great and so worth it. Definitely a must and not so expensive.
