The best place for stand up comedy in Boise. We’ve been Boise’s premiere stand up comedy venue since 2021 when Blue City Comedy began producing shows with us. Now, you can catch their shows all over town and you can catch professional standup every single weekend at Mad Swede. We host shows from a variety of producers and bring in the top touring comedians of the West Coast.
