Upcoming Shows

Celebrate 12 years of laughs, weirdness, and truly questionable audience suggestions!
Arcade Comedy Theater is marking its 12th anniversary with a full weekend of shows, throwbacks, and pure, unfiltered fun. From November 13–15, we’re packing the stage with house team favorites, beloved alumni, and the kind of comedy energy that only a dozen years of joyful chaos can create.

Join us as we spotlight the performers who helped shape Arcade’s story, welcome back fan-favorite acts, and keep the party rolling all weekend long. Whether you’re a longtime supporter or brand-new to the Arcade family, this is the perfect time to jump in and celebrate everything that makes our community special.

Come for the comedy, stay for the nostalgia, and leave with the warm glow of a place that’s been proudly making Pittsburgh laugh since… well, at least 12 years ago.

Tickets are on sale now—grab yours and help us kick off the next chapter!

Support our mission

Keep comedy in the Cultural District!

Arcade is a 501(c)3 arts organization dedicated to profiding a space for artists, audiences, and students to engage with the art of comedy. The revenue we earn from tickets and classes helps those programs exist, but on-going donations and support from our community ensure that our organization can remain in our facilities in the heart of the Cultural District.
