Marin Center Exhibit Hall – San Rafael
The final Show of the 49th San Francisco Comedy Competition comes to the Marin Center Exhibit Hall, hosted by former Competition winner Auggie Smith.
This show features the Top Five comedians of the comedy competition. Each will have up to 15 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 and become our new champion.
