The Newest Weed-Friendly Los Angeles Live-Comedy Event
Unlike standard stand-up venues, the Joint Effort Comedy Show takes place inside Catalyst’s Hawthorne dispensary and fully licensed cannabis consumption lounge, allowing attendees to enjoy legal cannabis consumption while experiencing live stand-up comedy from real comics here in Los Angeles.
The combination positions the series at the intersection of comedy, cannabis, and community-driven entertainment, a growing trend across California’s nightlife and live events scene.
Admission is 21+, with valid government-issued ID and proof of purchase required for entry.
Seating is limited, and early arrival is encouraged.
The dispensary features affordable products ranging from pre-rolled joints to edibles, beverages, vapes, and actual flower. The lounge does not charge to use bongs, pipes, dab rigs, and also provides papers and tips for guests to use.
As cannabis consumption lounges continue to expand across California, Joint Effort aims to establish itself as a go-to stand-up comedy series in the South Bay, offering consistent programming that blends live performance with modern cannabis culture.
