Clark Center: Arroyo Grande

September 19, 2025 @ 7:30 pm - 10:30 pm
Clark Center for the Performing Arts

The Finals return to Arroyo Grande at the Clark Center for the Performing Arts, hosted by former Competition winner Auggie Smith.

This show features the Top Five comedians of the comedy competition. Each will have up to 20 minutes to perform and convince the judges and the audience that they are worthy of first place. The audience holds tremendous power over the outcome of the show; the harder you laugh, the higher they score through the encore point.

One of the comics will win it all.
