Comedy at The Factory

Updated Jan 21, 2024: As of today this show has sold out 11 months in a row. We bring national headliner comedians to the Polka Dot Room at the Factory Bar. Past comedians have included Rory Scovel, Louis Katz, Brent Weinbach, and a ton of local favorites from Punch Line Cobbs with credits from late night, Comedy Central, and Netflix.

Join us at The Factory Bar for an amazing show in the Polka Dot Room. Get tickets NOW before they are gone.

The shows for 2024 will not be happening on a regular interval in the past. Instead they will be based on which comedians are coming through town so we can get the best possible comedians and bring them to Richmond.
