How much?

GA: $30.00

VIP: $60.00

With each VIP "Green Card" ticket, you'll get a special tear-off voucher.

Here's the lowdown:

Each VIP attendee will receive a dated, sequenced tear-off voucher which is valid the day of the show and additional 4 days after.
Remember, the voucher expires five days after the show date, so don’t let it go up in smoke!

Some background on AC Jokes.

"AC Jokes emerged from humble beginnings fueled by resilience and a passion for comedy," Vazquez says.

"When I arrived in Atlantic City seven years ago, the comedy scene was sparse, but I saw an opportunity. Despite recovering from back surgery, I dove headfirst into making comedy my full-time gig. I saw potential and lent my expertise, transforming empty calendars into packed venues."

"Despite challenges, including pandemic setbacks, our team persevered. With determination and teamwork, we overcame the obstacles."

"Today, AC Jokes stands as the top-rated comedy club in Atlantic City and New Jersey, offering a diverse lineup of talented comedians and fostering stronger relationships than ever before."
