The Comedy Store Today
The Comedy Store is currently owned by the British company MEATLiquor. It is located in West Hollywood, California, at 8433 Sunset Boulevard on the Sunset Strip. Routines by Ricky and Katt have also been featured on Weazel, a fictional television channel in the game.
The Comedy Store actors help young talents break into the show and achieve success. A number of events and shows are organized at The Belly Room. Comedy Cellar on MacDougal street is iconic and most sought after. Unfortunately, they check everyone’s IDs before entering the club. It is possible to make owning a comedy club profitable with a great location, top talent, strong marketing, and solid staff.
Levity Entertainment Group announced it has acquired The Improv comedy brand owned by Budd Friedman and Mark Lonow.

What Club Does Joe Rogan Own?
Joe Rogan owns a comedy club in Austin, Texas called the Comedy Mothership.
The Comedy Mothership aims to provide a "safe space" for comedians to perform without fear of backlash or cancellation. Rogan has been an outspoken critic of so-called "cancel culture" and wants his club to embrace controversial comedy.
The venue has a capacity of 658 people and spans two floors. It features multiple bars, bathrooms, a green room, and outdoor terrace. Rogan is best known for hosting the massively popular podcast The Joe Rogan Experience. He reportedly makes around $30 million per year from the show.
While controversial, Rogan has an extremely loyal following. The Comedy Mothership will likely succeed in attracting big crowds eager to see boundary-pushing stand up shows.
