Final Night: Free Comedy in the Park at Laurelhurst Park

 

 

Enjoy a free night of entertainment at Laurelhurst Park. Kickstand Comedy is hosting comedy in the park all summer long. 

 

Laurelhurst Park is one of Portland’s most popular parks for good reason. It’s close in—easy to get to from either side of the river—and has lots of outdoor amenities (think basketball court, horseshoe pits, off leash dog area and a pond). It is also a great place for a picnic. 

 

The park will be the stage for local and national comics on select Friday nights each month. The outdoor comedy series features stand up, character and immersive comedy shows.

 

The stage is set to the backdrop of the park along with original hand painted wood cut-outs inspired by Laurelhurst Park’s flora and fauna. These were created by everyone’s favorite local artist Mike Bennett.

 

The free free comedy in the park event at Laurelhurst Park is taking place at 6:30 p.m. Get there early to claim your spot on the grass. I recommend having dinner and a show al fresco with a picnic.

 

Here are the comedy in the park dates:

The comedy show is located in the park’s concert grove. It can be easily accessed along Oak Street. Due to the vicinity to the off leash dog area, and Portland’s love of canine companions, this event draws a lot of guests with their pups. If your dog could use a night out, bring them with you!
