Your guide to the best Comedy Clubs in Stockholm
- Where are all the funny people?Are there any comedy clubs in Stockholm even? One can easily be fooled into thinking that Swedes lack a sense of humor. Especially when you’re new to the culture, Swedes may come off as too rational, cold and definitely too serious. But actually that’s not so true – given the right atmosphere (and a few drinks), you’ll find that Swedes actually DO enjoy a laugh as much as any other nation.
Here are 5 of the best places for regular comedy shows in Stockholm – including stand-up, sketch and improv – most of them in English too!
01
The Laugh House
Just a short walk from the Gamla Stan subway station, The Laugh House is a one of the most popular comedy clubs in Stockholm showcasing the best comedy Sweden has to offer. Performances are both in Swedish and English every Saturday night. Wednesday Nights from March through May are Open Mic nights if you’re feeling brave and perhaps want to give stand-up comedy a try?

Stockholm Comedy Club
One of Sweden’s first stand-up comedy clubs where the most popular Swedish comedians take to the stage along with international guest appearances. Every Thursday they now run the fantastic Beer’n Play Comedy Club, where you can experience live comedy whilst enjoying an assortment of craft beer, neapolitan pizzas and burgers. In warm up to the show, you can play a game or two of pinball, arcade games, shuffleboard etc.

Every week it’s a completely new show with a wide variety of different acts delivering hilariously fast-paced comedy made up on the spot based on suggestions from the audience. All shows are performed in English.
