Late Night at The Lodge August 20, 2026

Chicago’s premiere late night comedy talk show

Late Night at the Lodge is a stand-up comedy show, late-night talk show, and occasional variety show all rolled into one.

Comedians perform stand-up, then join the host for a live interview, giving audiences a chance to hear the stories behind the jokes. Depending on the night, you might also catch musicians, improvisers, storytellers, sketch performers, and surprise guests.

Past performers have appeared on The Tonight Show, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, HBO, NBC, Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me!, Kill Tony, TEDx stages, and Just For Laughs.

Featuring a mix of established talent, rising stars, and fresh faces, no two shows are exactly alike.
