About Knoxville Comedy

We love comedy, and we love Knoxville—well, except I-40 during rush hour!

This page features local comedy producers who have been part of Knoxville’s growing independent comedy scene since the closing of Side Splitters Comedy Club in 2014.

Our mission is to build a thriving future for comedy in East Tennessee—where local businesses draw new customers by hosting comedy shows, touring and local comedians shine on stage, and audiences enjoy unforgettable nights filled with laughter.
