The Gonga Line Open Mic

The Gonga Line Open Mic at East Austin Comedy Club is where comedy fans take control! If a comic's set isn't landing, the audience can 'gong' them off the stage and welcome a fresh act. Each performer gets 2–6 minutes to bring their best material, creating an unpredictable, lively, and hilarious atmosphere with every show.

• Weekly event—great for locals, visiting comics, and anyone craving interactive stand-up thrills.
• The audience gets to participate directly, making each night unique and bursting with energy.
• Ideal for ages 18+ and those who appreciate raucous, spontaneous fun. Bring your friends and your best comedic spirit!
• Expect friendly vibes, lots of laughs, and the chance to help shape the night's entertainment!

Join in the fun, cheer, and maybe even give someone the gong—it's one of Austin’s most memorable comedy experiences!
