About this Event
Looking for something special to do on NYE in San Francisco?
Celebrate New Year’s Eve 2025 with an underground speakeasy comedy show at The Lost Church in North Beach.
Ring in New Year’s Eve the best way possible: tucked inside an intimate arts theater, surrounded by warm lights, great energy, and a room full of people ready to laugh their way into 2026.
This NYE comedy show features a carefully curated secret lineup of stand up comedians, including performers who have appeared on Netflix, HBO, and Comedy Central, along with a few special guest comics. Expect big laughs, surprise moments, and that electric end-of-year buzz that only happens on New Year’s Eve.
The Setup specializes in speakeasy-style comedy shows that are intimate, up close, and curated. The Lost Church is one of those rare San Francisco venues that feels like a secret you are lucky to find. Part art salon, part candlelit hideaway, it is the perfect setting for an unforgettable New Year’s Eve comedy experience.
And there is nothing quite like North Beach on New Year’s Eve. Lively streets, classic bars, late-night energy, and old-school San Francisco charm make the entire neighborhood feel like part of the celebration before you even walk through the door.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a two drink minimum?
There is no enforced two drink minimum for this show. That said, we do encourage guests to support the bar. The Lost Church is a beautiful independent venue, and your support helps keep spaces like this alive.
Who is on the lineup?
This New Year’s Eve show features a special guest lineup with comedians who have appeared on Netflix Is a Joke, Comedy Central, and HBO. We keep the lineup under wraps so we can bring in surprise guests and keep the night feeling fresh and spontaneous. That’s part of the speakeasy vibe and part of the fun. What we can promise is this:
The comics are legit. The room is intimate. And it’s going to be a very fun way to spend New Year’s Eve. Trust us. It’s going to be dope.
What time do doors open and when does the show start?
We have two shows on New Year’s Eve.
Early Show
Doors open at 6:30 pm
Showtime is 7:00 pm
Late Show
Doors open at 9:00 pm
Showtime is 9:30 pm
We recommend arriving when doors open so you can check in, grab a seat, and settle in before the show begins.
What about parking?
Street parking in North Beach can be limited, especially on New Year’s Eve. If you plan to drive, we recommend arriving early. The closest and most reliable option is the SFMTA North Beach Garage, which is within walking distance of the venue. Rideshare and public transportation are also great options for the night.
Will there be a New Year’s Eve countdown at the venue?
No. Our New Year’s Eve shows are designed as a stand up comedy experience, not a countdown party. The late show runs until approximately 11:15 pm, giving guests the flexibility to continue their night however they like. Many people enjoy catching fireworks near the pier, hopping to other bars in North Beach, or exploring the neighborhood after the show.
We’ve found this approach works best for guests who want a great comedy show as part of a larger New Year’s Eve night.
Is this event 21 and over?
Yes. This event is recommended for ages 21 and over.
Are ticket sales refundable?
All ticket sales are final and non refundable.
