Black History Month Comedy Festival at The Function


Nightly in February plus bonus shows into March because February is the shortest month


Celebrate Black History Month with live stand-up at San Francisco’s first Black-owned comedy club. Featuring the Bay Area’s best rising Black comedians, rotating lineups with credits like Cobb's, Punch Line, SF Sketchfest, Cheaper Than Therapy, and often surprise drop-in sets from touring comics.


Each show features 4 to 5 pro comedians performing 70 to 90 minutes of stand-up in an intimate clubhouse-style venue on Market Street.


Arrive early for Happy Hour, Monday to Friday from 5pm to 7pm with $2 off cocktails, draft beer, and wine.


Tickets

• $20 Sundays Through Thursdays

• $25 Fridays and Saturdays

• VIP seating options available


Like most comedy clubs, there is a two item minimum per person during the show. With craft cocktails, premium spirits, and thoughtful non-alcoholic options, it is part of the experience and helps support the venue and performers.


About The Function

The Function is San Francisco’s first Black-owned comedy club, located on Market Street near Hayes Valley. The space blends a stylish cocktail lounge with an intimate comedy room, creating a close, electric atmosphere where every show feels personal.


The club has quickly become a favorite hangout for working comics across the Bay Area. On any given night, you might see comedians stopping in after shows elsewhere, testing new material, or dropping in unexpectedly.


It’s a place where audiences get to experience comedy up close and often see rising talent and surprise guests before they move on to larger stages.
