Houston’s About to Get Real Funny — Here’s Your Hit List

If you’ve been meaning to “get out more” or “see live comedy” or “touch grass,” congrats — this is your sign. Houston’s comedy scene is dropping bangers all summer, and some of these shows are one-night-only, blink-and-you-miss-it type deals.

So here’s your rundown, no fluff, just facts (and jokes, obviously):


🎤 Tre Tutson — July 25 @ The Riot Comedy Club

Location: Rudyard’s Pub

Tre’s that dude. Local legend, fast-talking, truth-spitting, and funnier than whatever’s trending on TikTok right now. He’s been grinding in Houston for years and finally getting the shine he deserves. If you miss this set, that’s on you.

Pro tip: The Riot’s intimate. Grab a seat early or you’ll be watching from behind someone’s hat.

😂 Danny Jolles — July 27 @ Punch Line Comedy Club

You know that guy who looks kinda familiar, and then you realize it’s because you watched Crazy Ex-Girlfriend at 2AM during a breakup? Yeah — that’s Danny. But don’t let the soft-spoken delivery fool you — he’s sneaky hilarious, and once he locks you in, it’s game over for your abs.

Warning: You’ll accidentally relate to at least three jokes and start questioning your life choices.

🧨 George Lopez — August 2 @ NRG Arena

The man. The myth. The guy your uncle still quotes. George Lopez is rolling through Houston and bringing that OG energy with him. This isn’t just stand-up — this is a cultural event. If you grew up on The George Lopez Show, you already know the vibe. If you didn’t… come learn.

Note: It’s in an arena. This ain’t open mic night — show up loud.

🔥 D’lai — August 10 @ Punch Line Comedy Club

D’lai walks on stage and instantly takes control like he owns the place — because for the next hour, he does. He’s slick, wild, and will absolutely roast you if you make eye contact (but in a fun, sexy way). This show’s gonna feel like a party.

Fact: D’lai don’t miss. Bring your A-game energy or stay home.

👀 Wanna Stay Plugged In?

This ain’t even the full list. Houston’s got secret sets, pop-up showcases, rooftop mics, and probably a dude telling jokes out of his trunk somewhere. If you want more comedy drops like this, stick around. We’ve got you.
