Las Vegas: Jimmy Kimmel’s Comedy Club
Jimmy Kimmel’s Comedy Club gives you a welcome break from Las Vegas spectacle: one room, a microphone, and comedians working a live audience. The 8,000-square-foot club sits at The LINQ Promenade, so you can pair the show with dinner, drinks, or the High Roller.
I like the intimate room and the mix of known comics with newer performers. I also like the relaxed bar and lounge setup, which opens an hour before showtime and is not known for pushing drinks too hard. The main catch is that the lineup can change, and one comedy night may include a magic act, so book this for live entertainment rather than a guaranteed Jimmy Kimmel appearance.
Key points to know before you book

- Jimmy Kimmel does not usually perform: His name and design shape the venue, but the stage features other established and emerging comedians.
- The show lasts about 75 to 90 minutes: The advertised experience runs for roughly 1.5 hours, with the exact set length depending on the performer.
- The LINQ Promenade location is convenient: Rideshare or taxi service is recommended, and paid parking is available at The LINQ.
- The setting is adult-oriented: Children under 18 are not permitted.
- The bar opens early: The restaurant, bar, and lounge open one hour before showtime, with general hours from 4:00 PM to midnight daily.
- No recording is allowed: Cameras, phones used for recording, audio devices, video recorders, and laser pointers are prohibited.
A comedy club with a Strip-friendly address

The club is at The LINQ Promenade, one of the easier places on the Las Vegas Strip to build an evening around. You are not heading to an isolated theater or a distant casino showroom. The comedy club sits among restaurants, bars, shops, and other attractions, which makes it simple to plan a full night without crossing town.
I see the location as one of the strongest reasons to choose this show. You can eat before the performance, arrive early for a drink, or schedule the comedy around another ticketed attraction. The High Roller is nearby, and the Promenade gives you more choice than a theater with only one expensive concession counter.
For transport, a rideshare or taxi to The LINQ Promenade is recommended. If you drive, there is a paid parking garage at The LINQ. Build in time to find the correct entrance and walk through the Promenade, especially if you are arriving during a busy evening.
The venue may also offer afternoon times, although the general restaurant, bar, and lounge hours are listed as 4:00 PM to midnight every day. Check the exact performance time when you book. A matinee can work well if you want a shorter, lighter outing, while an evening show fits more naturally into a full Strip night.

What Jimmy Kimmel’s design brings to the room

Jimmy Kimmel is best known from television, but this venue connects him to his Las Vegas roots. He personally designed the club, giving the room a more personal identity than a generic comedy space carrying a celebrity name.
That detail matters because the appeal is not just branding. The room is built around live comedy, with an intimate layout intended to keep the audience close to the performer. You are there for timing, crowd response, and the small shifts in a comedian’s delivery that can get lost in a giant showroom.
The club’s 8,000 square feet gives it enough room for a full restaurant, bar, lounge, and performance area, while still aiming for a close-up feel. Exact seating arrangements can vary, so I would not assume every seat has the same view. Still, the format is more personal than a large production show with screens, dancers, or elaborate stage effects.
That smaller scale also means the audience is part of the atmosphere. Comedy depends on a live reaction, and a club setting gives performers room to adjust their material. It can also mean that humor feels more direct, so this is not the right pick if you want a polished, family-friendly stage show.
The 75 to 90 minute show format

Plan on about 1.5 hours at the club, with comedians generally performing for 75 to 90 minutes. The exact length depends on the performer, so treat the timing as a useful guide rather than a strict promise.
The main event is stand-up from a changing mix of acclaimed comedians and emerging talent. Jimmy Kimmel himself is not promised as the host or performer. That is the most important expectation to set before buying a ticket.
I like the variety in principle. A famous television name can draw attention, but a club is at its best when you discover a performer you did not already know. Newer comics may bring a different voice, while established performers offer the polish that comes from years on stage.
The tradeoff is predictability. You are choosing a comedy venue and a style of night, not a fixed celebrity show. If you need to know exactly who you will see, check the scheduled performer before booking. If you are happy with a fresh lineup and the chance of an unexpected act, the format works in your favor.
One performance may include a magic segment. That is a useful warning for anyone expecting nothing but stand-up. It can be a fun change of pace, but the show is not presented as a dedicated magic performance, so treat any non-comedy addition as part of the night’s changing program.
Arrive early for the bar and lounge
The restaurant, bar, and lounge open one hour before showtime. I would use that window to arrive without rushing, find the entrance, and settle into the venue before the lights change.
This early period is also useful if you want to make the comedy club part of a longer evening. You can meet your party, order a drink, and get comfortable before the performance rather than trying to squeeze in a meal afterward.
The available information does not specify a food and drink minimum, so do not assume one. It does indicate that the atmosphere is relaxed and not overly aggressive about drink sales. That makes the club a better fit for someone who wants a social setting without feeling pressured to keep ordering.
Still, the $23 ticket is for the comedy club entry. Food and drinks are not included in the listed ticket benefits. Keep that in mind when comparing this show with other Las Vegas entertainment. Your final spending can rise if you dine and drink inside the venue.

Is $23 a good value in Las Vegas?

At $23 per person, the ticket is modest by Las Vegas show standards. You receive access to roughly 75 to 90 minutes of live comedy in a dedicated venue, with the convenience of a Strip location.
The value is strongest if you enjoy stand-up and want a lower-cost evening activity. Many large Las Vegas shows rely on elaborate production, premium seating, and higher ticket prices. This club gives you a simpler night centered on the performer and the room.
You should compare the ticket with your other plans, though. Once you add parking, rideshare costs, food, and drinks, the total night can cost much more than $23. The ticket is affordable, but it is not an all-inclusive evening.
I would also place value on the setting. You are not only paying for a comedian’s time. You are getting access to a club designed around live comedy, in a convenient part of the Strip, with a bar and lounge available before the show. For a visitor who wants an easy night between bigger attractions, that combination is practical.
The price is less compelling if you are buying mainly because of Jimmy Kimmel. His name gives the club its identity, but the ticket does not promise that he will appear. Buy it for the venue and the scheduled comedy lineup.
Who will enjoy this club most
This experience suits adults who want a casual night of live entertainment. It works especially well for:
- Couples looking for something lighter than a large stage production
- Friends who enjoy stand-up and do not need a fixed celebrity lineup
- Solo visitors who want an easy activity at The LINQ Promenade
- Comedy fans interested in finding newer performers
- Visitors building a full evening around dinner and the High Roller
The age rule is clear: children under 18 are not suitable for this activity. That restriction is reasonable for a comedy club, where material can be adult in tone and audience participation may be part of the format.
I would be more cautious if you dislike unpredictable programming. The night can include a magic act, and the performer length varies. That is not a problem for a flexible visitor, but it matters if you are scheduling a tight dinner reservation, airport transfer, or another show immediately afterward.
The club is wheelchair accessible, which makes it a practical choice for visitors who need an accessible venue. Seating details are not provided, so contact the operator if you need to confirm a particular seating arrangement.
Planning your visit at The LINQ Promenade
Give yourself enough time to reach the club rather than arriving at the advertised start time with no margin. A rideshare or taxi to The LINQ Promenade is recommended, and drivers can use the paid parking garage at The LINQ.
The Promenade can be part of the fun, but it can also add walking time. If you are coming from another casino or attraction, check your route before you leave. Las Vegas distances often look short on a map, and the actual casino and pedestrian paths can take longer than expected.
Arriving one hour early gives you a calmer start. You can use the restaurant, bar, or lounge before the show, then settle in for the performance. If your ticket is for an afternoon time, confirm the venue’s opening details because the standard lounge hours are listed from 4:00 PM to midnight.
Bring a passport or ID card. The club is for adults, and identification may be needed at entry. I would carry the same valid ID you use for other age-restricted activities in Las Vegas.
Leave your recording gear behind. Cameras, video recorders, audio recording devices, and laser pointers are not allowed at any time. Do not plan to film a favorite joke or record a short clip for social media. Comedy clubs protect the live show, and the rule applies throughout the venue.
How this compares with larger Las Vegas shows

Jimmy Kimmel’s Comedy Club is a different kind of night from Cirque du Soleil, a helicopter flight, or the Sphere. Those experiences are built around major visual effects, large-scale staging, or sightseeing. This one depends on a performer speaking to a room.
That can be a strength. You get a more direct and flexible evening, with less time spent moving through a huge production or waiting for a long performance sequence to unfold. The 75 to 90 minute format is also easy to place between other plans.
The limitation is that the experience depends heavily on the night’s lineup. A spectacular production delivers a more consistent visual package. A comedy club can be funnier than expected, or simply not match your sense of humor.
I would choose this club when you want live comedy, a manageable price, and a central location. I would choose a major production instead if you want music, choreography, special effects, or a show designed for a broad range of tastes.
Practical expectations for a smooth night
Keep these points in mind as you plan:
- The $23 price covers the comedy club ticket only.
- The show usually lasts 75 to 90 minutes, though the performer controls the exact length.
- Jimmy Kimmel is not guaranteed to appear on stage.
- The lineup can include both established comedians and newer talent.
- A magic performance may be included in the program.
- The venue is wheelchair accessible.
- Children under 18 are not permitted.
- Bring a passport or ID card.
- Do not bring recording equipment or use cameras, video, or audio recording inside.
- The activity is non-refundable, so check the date and time carefully before purchasing.
The non-refundable rule deserves attention because comedy lineups and show times may be part of a tightly planned Las Vegas schedule. Confirm that the date works before paying, especially if your plans depend on weather, other reservations, or a changing trip itinerary.
Should you book Jimmy Kimmel’s Comedy Club?
Book it if you want an affordable, adult night of stand-up in a comfortable Strip location. The intimate format, early-opening lounge, and mix of established and emerging comedians make it a good fit for a relaxed evening at The LINQ Promenade.
Do not book it expecting Jimmy Kimmel himself, a guaranteed style of comedy, or a fully fixed program. You may see a magic segment, and the total cost will rise if you add food, drinks, parking, or rideshare service.
My advice is simple: check the scheduled performer, arrive early, and treat the $23 ticket as an entry to a live comedy night rather than a celebrity appearance. For adults who enjoy discovering what happens on stage, this is a sensible and reasonably priced addition to a Las Vegas itinerary.
