Comedy Shows in Tampa – May-June 2023

What’s the difference between a golfer and a skydiver? A golfer goes whack – “damn,” and a skydiver goes “damn” – whack.

Ok, it’s corny but we’re not the professionals. However, we’ve got the inside track to the professionals who are on stage with the best comedy shows in Tampa through June 2023.

A Round of Applause for Tampa Bay Seat Fillers

If you live in the Tampa area (St. Pete and Clearwater, too!) and love comedy (plus other live shows!), be sure to check out OTL Seat Fillers. Seat Fillers have been in the Tampa area for eight years, attending theatre, comedy, and special events. Low membership dues cover 2 or 4 tickets per show – and you never pay for tickets or any additional (and crazy!) charges!

A Few Stand Out Stand Ups in Tampa Bay in May & June

Side Splitters

Instead of focusing on just one stand-up at Side Splitters, we want to bring the club to your attention. That’s because it has a long list of comics so there’s something for everyone. But what’s also enticing is the club itself. When you envision heading to a traditional comedy club, Side Splitters fits the bill – brick walls, cozy atmosphere, and all!

Free parking, food and drink menu, and incredible 90-minute shows. If you haven’t been to a comedy club in a while, check out the Side Splitters website and get tickets now – many shows sell out!

Oh, and Paul Virzi, Jessica Michelle Singleton, and Jim Breuer are just a few of the headliners in May-June.

George Lopez

George must be on a hiatus from his hit show Lopez vs. Lopez, as he’s popping up in most of our OTL Seat Fillers cities, including Tampa.

Lopez was originally slated to take the stage at the Seminole Hard Rock in December 2022, but Covid prompted a reschedule to June 1st. Tickets start at $91, and you might get lucky if you try to purchase some online now. But we make no promises!

Teachers ARE Funny!

As the unrivaled champion of humor in the teaching realm, Bored Teachers proudly presents an exciting new venture: an expanded tour featuring an extraordinary ensemble of comedians.

Prepare for the uproarious stop on the Teachers Do Stand Up Tour. A revolving cast of the funniest teacher comics from across the nation unites, ensuring every educator in search of a laughter-filled respite after yet another demanding academic year is thoroughly entertained.

The Bored Teachers Presents: Teachers Do Stand Up event is June 20th at the Tampa Improv, and tickets start at $32.
