Friday, have a blast! Standup comedy in English with the BEST comedians in Lisbon and from abroad! 🍻 Meet people from all over the world.
This is our curated Friday showcase — every week we put together a lineup of the strongest comedians we've got, local heroes and international guests, to give you the best possible start to your weekend. Think of it as the show where the comedy scene shows off a little.
Laugh, drink, dance.
The Villain Comedy is where Lisbon's comedy lovers, expats, travellers, digital nomads, and anyone who appreciates a good time come together on a Friday night. The crowd is international, the drinks are good, the bar is beautiful, and the comedy is even better.
Show starts at 9 — depends on how late we southern Europeans are.
Featuring:
Jen Nafziger (7)
Pedro Fabião (5)
Diego Joaquin Aguilar (10)

What People Say
"Great spot to listen to some English language comedy. The owner and host is very interactive and funny. Love the place and will definitely be back. And highly recommend to anyone who's a fan of stand up."
"Great comedy club, intimate, and highly entertaining. This Lisbon gem should be a staple of the nightlife as it is a fantastic venue and the artists have been very good on our visits. Highly recommend!"
"I had loads of fun at their Friday night show. The venue is very cool, ran by and for comedians. This is a no brainer if you are solo travelling as the bar staff look after you and comedy is a great ice breaker when meeting people."
"I have been here twice now, and really enjoyed the experience both times. If you are looking for diverse, multicultural comedy all in English in Lisbon, this is the place! There is also a secretive speakeasy vibe to the bar and its entrance which is a really nice touch."
