Zanies Comedy Night Club is a live comedy venue in Nashville, Tennessee. The club describes itself as having been “a pillar of laughter and a beacon for comedic talents for over 40 years,” and it operates two adjacent performance spaces on 8th Avenue South. The main room hosts touring and local stand-up comedy shows, while The Lab at Zanies, located next door and opened in Spring 2024, serves as an intimate 100-seat theater for additional performances. The venue books a rotating calendar of comedians and also hosts private events.
Services
Zanies presents live stand-up comedy performances across its two rooms, featuring a regularly updated schedule of touring headliners and local talent. The club offers food and beverage service during shows and provides space for private event bookings. The Lab at Zanies functions as a smaller, more intimate venue for newer material and specialized programming. Tickets are sold through ETIX, and the venue uses what it calls “All-In Ticket Pricing,” meaning the total price listed includes ticket fees and taxes. Listed ticket prices range from about $16 to $48 depending on the performer or event. The website includes sub-pages for the event calendar, FAQ, food and drink menus for both the Main Room and The Lab, gift cards, hiring, private events, and merchandise.
