Punchline Comedy Club, Comedy venue in Metro Atlanta, United States
Punchline Comedy Club is a comedy venue with approximately 270 seats located in Atlanta at the intersection of Roswell and Piedmont Roads. The room is small enough that audiences feel close to the stage, yet large enough to host regular live performances.
The club opened in 1982 in Sandy Springs and later relocated to its current location after a period of closure. This move marked a new chapter for the established comedy program.
The venue has drawn both local and touring comedians who have performed here and shaped Atlanta's reputation as a comedy destination. The close seating arrangement puts audiences near the performers, making the energy between stage and crowd immediate and direct.
The venue presents shows multiple times weekly, with additional performances on weekends and a 21-year-old minimum age requirement. Guests should arrive early to secure good seating and have time to settle before the show begins.
The building still displays decorative elements from its former life as a country-western bar and before that a carpet store. These layers of the past are part of the venue's character and tell a different story than just the comedy shows.
