Comedy Clubs In York Pennsylvania

Comedy Clubs in York, Pennsylvania


Located in south central Pennsylvania, not far from the Maryland border, York touts itself as the "Factory Tour Capital of the World." But there is far more to this small city than tours of the Harley Davidson Motorcyle Company and the nearby Hershey Chocolate World. In fact, there's plenty to laugh about in York. The area hosts several comedy clubs and theaters where you can have a fun and memorable night of comedy.


Pullo Center


Located on Penn State University's York satellite campus, the Pullo Family Center for the Performing Arts features a 1,000-seat theater and hosts all kinds of concerts, plays, musicals, and live performers-including comedians. Comedians to have graced the stage there include Tracy Morgan of "Saturday Night Live" and "30 Rock" fame. An updated schedule for each academic year, along with ticket prices and information for individual comedy shows, can be found at the Pullo Center's website: http://pullocenter.yk.psu.edu.

Harrisburg Comedy Zone


From York, head north on Interstate 83 for about half an hour to get to the Harrisburg Comedy Zone, located at Doc Holiday's Steakhouse and Saloon and the Harrisburg West Inn and Conference Center. The Comedy Zone offers three-act shows Friday and Saturday nights (8 p.m. and 10:30 p.m.) that feature nationally known headliners. The room seats 175 people, and along with great comedy, you're in for some of central Pennsylvania's finest steaks, ribs, and seafood from Doc Holidays. Dinner and show packages are available, along with dinner, show, and hotel packages.
