Open mics and comedy in Fullerton

Where to find developing performers, casual stages and recurring comedy nights.

Open mics are a reliable way to see Fullerton's local creative scene without planning around a major ticketed show. The Night Owl regularly appears in music and performance listings, while the Continental Room has hosted recurring comedy programming. Other Downtown rooms add occasional showcases and themed nights. CSUF and Fullerton College also produce theatre, comedy-adjacent performances and student showcases. Those events usually have clearer seating and ticket information than a bar open mic, so choose based on whether you want a casual drop-in or a scheduled performance. Check the live listing for signup time versus show time. Performers often need to arrive earlier than audience members, and recurring programs sometimes pause for holidays or special bookings.
