Monday Night Laughs

Because Mondays don't have to suck

Start your week with Amsterdam's most iconic comedy show; where the jokes are fresh, the crowd is buzzing, and no two nights are ever the same.

Here's the deal: We pack De Prael with the best comedians from the Dutch scene AND heavy-hitters flying in from the US and UK circuit. Think Netflix specials, Comedy Central, BBC, Live at the Apollo; yeah, we've had them all. April Macie, Tom Rhodes, Ria Lina, Desiree Burch... the list goes on.

The Vibe: Show up early, grab a beer, meet some fellow expats, maybe make a Monday night crew. Doors open well before showtime at 8pm, so you've got time to settle in and vibe out.

The Details:📍 De Prael, Oudezijds Armsteeg 26

All shows in English. All shows unpredictable. That's the point.

Stop doom-scrolling. Get your ticket and actually laugh this Monday.
