Booking comedians in New Orleans
New Orleans may be the best live-music city in the country. Brass bands, second-line parades and jazz are part of almost every wedding, convention and celebration.
Where New Orleans events happen
French Quarter and Garden District venues, historic hotels, courtyards, plantation estates and riverfront spaces.
Season & timing
Fall through spring is peak, with Mardi Gras and festival season booking far ahead. Summer is hot and humid with hurricane risk.
Know your audience
Tell us who's in the room. For workplaces and mixed ages, we book clean comics who are proven with corporate crowds.
Set up the room for laughs
Comedy works best with a mic, light on the comic, guests seated facing the stage and no dinner service during the set. Schedule it after the meal.
Consider customizing
Many corporate comics add material about your company or industry. Share a short brief a few weeks before the event.
Options we book
Clean corporate set
20–45 minutes of workplace-safe material for mixed audiences.
Custom & roast
Material written around your company, team or guest of honor.
Comedy show
A host plus one or two comics for a full evening program.
Questions to ask before you book
- Can we see a full clean set on video?
- How long is the set, and can you also host?
- Will you customize material for our group?
- What do you need for sound and lighting?
- Are there any topics you avoid?
We ask these for you, and negotiate set length, clean vs. adult content, custom material and the contract terms on your behalf.
