Frequently Asked Questions About Denver Comedy Underground

How old do I have to be to see a comedy show at Denver Comedy Underground?
Due to the adult nature of many comedy sets, we require all guests to be 18 years of age or older. For guests under 18, admittance is allowed, provided you are accompanied by a ticket-carrying legal guardian who consents to your attendance at the show. Fair warning to those accompanying minors to an event; some of the funniest shows can include raucous and grown-up material!
Where is the Denver Comedy Underground venue located?
Denver Comedy Underground is located in the basement of the Althea Center for Engaged Spirituality. Our entrance is on the west end of the building, facing towards Williams Street. If you see a sign that says "St Francis Center Employment Services," that means you are in the right place!
When is Denver Comedy Underground open?
We are open and run multiple shows each week on Thursdays from 7:00 P.M. to 10:00 P.M., and Fridays and Saturdays from 7:00 P.M. to 11:30 P.M. We are closed Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.
Where do I park when attending a comedy show at Denver Comedy Underground?
As shown on the map presented on this page, Denver Comedy Underground offers up ample parking to comedy show attendees. Street parking around the building is available to those who arrive early, but we also have a substantial parking lot facing High Street. A word to the wise: Do not park behind the office building to the southeast of the Althea Center. The owners of this building enforce strict parking rules, and the fastest way to spoil a night full of laughs and hilarious comedy is to come outside and find that your vehicle has been towed!
I think I am here, but Denver's top comedy club is in the basement of a church?
Yes! Surprising though it may be, our venue is in fact located below the Althea Center for Engaged Spirituality.
Wait, you actually are located in the basement of a church?
Yes, you read that right! One caveat though: The Althea Center is not really a church, it is technically a spiritual center. However, it is both funnier and quicker just to call it a church.
Side question: What is the difference?
We are not really sure, but we love the Althea Center. A church probably would not be cool with hosting the best comedy shows in Denver or the best local comedy club in their basement, so maybe that is the real difference between a spiritual center and a church. These folks also walk the walk in terms of being kind and respecting everyone from all walks of life, which is what most religions try to teach, we think. However, we will leave that debate up to far smarter people than those who run a comedy club. At the end of the day, the Althea Center hosts a plethora of amazing events, and you should check these out as well if you are at all intrigued by the atmosphere and vibe of this unique venue.
