Comedy Walk

It is summer 2017. We (Comedy Walks founders Laura and Erik) are renting a tiny room at a beautiful 17th-century canal house in the center of Amsterdam. Every day, there is a crowd of young tourists gathered around a tour guide in front of our apartment. Each and every time, we notice that the tour guide is unable to keep the attention of his audience as people look either bored or at their mobile phone.Laura sighed to Erik: “Why can’t it be funny, why not use a comedian as a city guide?” Erik, an experienced improvisation comedian himself, immediately realized the potential of this idea, namely a stand-up comedy show with the city as a stage. That is the moment the Comedy Walks seed popped, literally born out of our frustration with conventional, rather boring city walks.Barely six months later, the very first try-out of Comedy Walks took place with stand-up comedian Tim van’t Hul. It was the beginning of January 2018. It was cold and dark and the audience only consisted of critical comedians. Nevertheless, Tim passed the test with flying colors. Nowadays we run Comedy Walks in Amsterdam, Washington DC and  Berlin.

Comedy Walks

The one and only Comedy Walk in Amsterdam!
A Comedy Walk is stand-up comedy with the city as a stage. So stand up and comedy walk with us as we explore the city, sharing interesting, unique, and of course, funny stories!
While the route depends on the comedian, you can expect to visit many awesome locations around the city, like the old Amsterdam orphanage, the Palace on the Dam, and the National Monument on the Dam (psst: It is a big, clunky, white sword and not a big, white dildo as many tourists, perhaps understandably, believe).
Our hilarious walk may also take us past the South Church, the former HQs of the Dutch East India Company and the Prayer-without-an-end street. So expect fun, historic facts, and fun facts too!
