San Francisco Black History Month Comedy Festival 2026

Black History Month Comedy Festival at The Function

Nightly in February plus bonus shows into March because February is the shortest month

Celebrate Black History Month with live stand-up at San Francisco’s first Black-owned comedy club. Featuring the Bay Area’s best rising Black comedians, rotating lineups with credits like Cobb's, Punch Line, SF Sketchfest, Cheaper Than Therapy, and often surprise drop-in sets from touring comics.

Each show features 4 to 5 pro comedians performing 70 to 90 minutes of stand-up in an intimate clubhouse-style venue on Market Street.

Arrive early for Happy Hour, Monday to Friday from 5pm to 7pm with $2 off cocktails, draft beer, and wine.

Tickets

• $20 Sundays Through Thursdays

• $25 Fridays and Saturdays

• VIP seating options available

Like most comedy clubs, there is a two item minimum per person during the show. With craft cocktails, premium spirits, and thoughtful non-alcoholic options, it is part of the experience and helps support the venue and performers.

About The Function

The Function is San Francisco’s first Black-owned comedy club, located on Market Street near Hayes Valley. The space blends a stylish cocktail lounge with an intimate comedy room, creating a close, electric atmosphere where every show feels personal.

The club has quickly become a favorite hangout for working comics across the Bay Area. On any given night, you might see comedians stopping in after shows elsewhere, testing new material, or dropping in unexpectedly.

It’s a place where audiences get to experience comedy up close and often see rising talent and surprise guests before they move on to larger stages.

• Full bar, cocktails, beer, wine + drink specials
• 21+ Only
• Like most comedy clubs there is a two drink minimum to help support the bar/wait staff
• Credit / Debit / Mobile payments accepted - Please note the venue is cashless
