About this event
Discover Zürich’s Hidden Comedy Scene – in English!
Strolling the cobblestones of the Old Town you’d never guess that, just off Central, locals and expats pack into a cozy bar every Thursday for a night of English-language laughs.
Welcome to IN YOUR FACE Comedy Brew, Zürich’s weekly stand-up open mic where:
- Local talent & globetrotting comics road-test brand-new jokes.
- You mingle with Swiss residents and fellow travellers over Swiss craft beer.
- Post-show chat often turns into insider tips on where to hike, swim, or eat fondue without the tourist tax.
The Nuts & Bolts
- When: Doors 19:30, show 20:00–22:00 (plenty of time to catch late trams).
- Where: ROBIN’s, Zähringerstrasse 33, 8001 Zürich: 2 min walk from Central tram stop, 5 min from the main station.
- What: At least 10 comedians, zero yodelling, loads of unexpected giggles.
Why pop in?Because after museums and mountain views you deserve a slice of Zürich’s real nightlife: spontaneous, funny, and refreshingly un-Swiss in punctuality alone. Come solo, bring your travel buddies, or perform a 5-minute spot if you’re feeling brave: IN YOUR FACE Comedy Brew is the easiest way to meet people who actually live here.

Frequently asked questions
Absolutely. Every set is performed in English by a mix of Swiss-based and international comics, so no Swiss-German skills required.
It’s the testing ground for jokes. Pros road-test fresh material and brave newcomers grab their first five minutes. Expect some gems, some flops—and the fun of seeing comedy born in real time.
Most of the time, yes! An open mic is a roller-coaster: seasoned acts, new voices, and the occasional glorious train-wreck. It’s all part of the charm.
Maybe! If you’re just visiting Zürich and can pitch us convincingly before showtime, we might squeeze you in for 5 minutes. Full details: inyourfacecomedy.ch/perform
Please do. We’re usually running around before the show and door sales slow things down. If you’re stuck, we’ll try, but no promises.
First come, first served—so grab a drink, snag a seat, and settle in.
ROBIN’s serves drinks only. For a pre-show bite, try Restaurant Johanniter (classic Swiss) or Holy Cow! across the street for burgers.
We chat with the crowd for laughs, not humiliation. Friendly banter only—you’re safe.
Doors 19:30, show starts ~7:50pm with a 15 minute break in the middle, ending around 10pm. Plenty of time to catch late trams...
