The Comedy Embassy Stand-Up Show Amsterdam
Description
Amsterdam’s best stand-up comedy. You can’t beat 5 stars on Trip Advisor and 4.9 stars on Google. We’re that funny - first dinner in the city, then Comedy Embassy at Boom Chicago. Every Friday and Saturday, we welcome hysterical foreign dignitaries from the international stand-up community. They deliver Ambassador-level comedy (or at least Consul General-level comedy) to enthusiastic crowds. For almost ten years, the Comedy Embassy has made the capital city laugh with the best euro-to-laughter exchange rate on the continent. No one has diplomatic immunity from these top comedians. The Comedy Embassy returns to Boom Chicago’s Upstairs Theater, the best room for comedy in Amsterdam. The two-hour show (including an intermission) brings you four top English-speaking comedians and a full bar. Bring your drinks to the show. No passport is required.

Fun evening out with good sport comedians who had an unfortunate heckling audience. Great experience.
Thank you! That was a tougher night than usual, but the actors were stars!
Not great- 3 comedians, none of which were very funny. A couple had to be removed as they were so rude to the performers and another group left during the first comedian (not sure if they were asked to leave or not but there were a lot of smashed glasses and heckling). Thought it would be a lot better than it was unfortunately! The best part was the host who spoke in between each comedian- she was at least funny.
Sorry the evening wasn't up to our usual standards. There was an unusual amount of disruption that night. While our comedians can navigate some heckling, dealing with a rowdy group is harder to manage and may have taken the performers off their game. In any case, we'd be happy to welcome you back to a standup show or an improv show and prove why Boom Chicago is a staple of comedy in Amsterdam & beyond.
Fantastic night! Despite a slight issue getting the Trip Adviser purchased tickets scanned in the venue, we had a cracking night. Great bar and very reasonable prices bearing in mind where we were. Upstairs 'Into The Attic' for the comedy experience. Really well laid out intimate setting and then a truly masterful display from our Comedy Compere!! A wide range of comedians throughout the show, nice crowd work without being harassing and a headline set worth of any world class comedy clubs! Thanks again to everyone involved 👍🏼💜
Thank you very much! The Comedy Embassy is the best stand up comedy in Amsterdam. The New York Times even wrote a piece about it! Two actually: One about Boom Chicago and one about Stand Up comedy in Europe. Google them!
Friday 14 Nov Wow, what a night! One wild, wild crowd. I have never been to such a wild comedy club. The bar is full of half naked wrestlers when we arrive (the downstairs room has pro wrestling going on apparently) loud, loud music and a shot fueled party is in full swing in the bar. The atmosphere is electric. We wonder what we have come into. The 10.15pm comedy embassy show is booked out. The bar runs out of beer by 10 pm and we are given g&ts at beer prices. (Got to love that policy.) The show starts and the audience is completely wild - The MC castigates and disciplines us all delightfully. She rocked but, I still fear for the comedians to come - we are a wild, wild crowd. But wow what a night. The first guy up is from Iraq and warms us up nicely. Then comes an hilarious bald comic Jacob who was an absolute blast. He has us and hanging on his every word and laughing like hyenas. Would love to see him again. Closing the show was a funny south African comedian. All in all 2 hours of great laughs and great atmosphere. Top class comedy
That's just a Friday at Boom Chicago! Well, we don't have pro wrestling every week...
