Why Valley comedy fans drive out

Three shows in one

Most Phoenix comedy nights are stand-up only. Arizona After Dark runs stand-up, sketch, and improv in a single set list, so the room never sits on one rhythm for long.

$20, no minimums

One flat $20 ticket. No drink minimum, no two-item rule, no downtown parking fee — food and beer from the Hundred Mile taproom menu if you want them.

A cast you'll recognize

The same core performers come back every month — Aaron Bare, Forbes Shannon, Jess Nabors, Rashad Armstrong, Max Zemezonak, Keith Mitnik — so regulars watch bits and characters build show to show.

Getting here

Easy from anywhere in the Valley

Hundred Mile Brewing Co. sits at 690 N. Scottsdale Road in Tempe, just off the 202 and minutes from the 101 — central to Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, and Chandler.

Downtown Phoenix

About 15 minutes east on the 202 — park free instead of paying downtown garage rates.

Scottsdale

Straight down Scottsdale Road. Old Town to the door is roughly 15 minutes.

Mesa

About 15 minutes west, and an easy Friday-night run on the 202 Red Mountain.

Chandler & Gilbert

20–25 minutes north on the 101 or Arizona Ave.

ASU & Downtown Tempe

Under 10 minutes from campus — 21+ only, so bring ID.

Glendale & West Valley

Roughly 35–40 minutes via the 202/101, with free on-site parking at the end of it.

Phoenix comedy questions

Good to
know.

Where can I see stand-up comedy in Phoenix on a Friday night?

Arizona After Dark runs monthly on a Friday at Hundred Mile Brewing Co., 690 N. Scottsdale Road in Tempe — about 15 minutes from downtown Phoenix. Doors are 6:30 PM, the show starts 7:30 PM, and tickets are $20 general admission.

How is this different from a Phoenix comedy club?

There is no drink minimum and no two-item requirement. One $20 ticket covers the whole night: stand-up, sketch, and improv from a recurring Valley cast, in a brewery taproom with a full food and beer menu.

Is parking free?

Yes. Hundred Mile Brewing Co. has free on-site parking, so you are not paying for a downtown Phoenix garage or a rideshare surge on the way in.

Is the show 21 and over?

Yes, Arizona After Dark is 21+. Bring a valid ID for entry at the taproom.
