Comedy Shows in Irvine, CA

The room is at 527 Spectrum Center Drive, in the Spectrum shopping district, and every Irvine show in these listings is booked there. It is a standard club night: a host, a headliner, and a crowd that drove over from the rest of Orange County. Irvine does not add a theater or an arena to this list. Brea, a short drive north, has its own Improv and its own city page. If you are choosing between those two clubs, you are choosing between two calendars, and this page is only the Spectrum one. The useful thing about a one-room city is that you can read the month straight down. The comic changes, the address does not. Late shows are separate rows, so a Saturday can appear twice with two start times.

Spectrum parking is part of the plan on a busy weekend, and the show still starts when the listing says it starts. Open the row for the time before you leave the club's page and assume you know the slot.

The club adds extra weekends and late sets as the month fills in. The FindStandup alert on this page emails you when a new Irvine show is posted.
