Boston, MA Open Mic Directory
33 comedy open mics across Boston, MA – signup times, house rules, and how to find the stage. Updated regularly.
A note from our web-crawling spiders: We scour the internet to keep this directory fresh, but sometimes our spiders get stuck in their own web. Every listing below is tagged Verified (we confirmed it directly with the venue) or Community-Sourced (pulled from aggregators and the venue’s own site — probably true, possibly out of date). Signup times, hosts, and even whether the mic still exists can change without notice. Please double-check before you drive across town — and if something’s stale, let us know so we can fix it.
