Get ready for a wildly eclectic weekend in Sacramento! From laugh-out-loud comedy shows to classic car showcases, this weekend proves our city has something for every kind of adventure seeker.
Laugh Until Your Sides Hurt at Corner House Comedy
Friday night calls for some serious belly laughs, and Corner House Comedy is delivering exactly that. This month’s headliner is Samson Koletkar, aka Mahatma Moses, the world’s only Indian Jewish stand-up comedian who’s mastered the art of blending cultural comedy gold. His techie-turned-comic journey creates the kind of relatable, sharp-witted humor that’ll have you quoting his jokes all weekend. After the show, you’re perfectly positioned to grab late-night eats at one of Midtown Sacramento’s best restaurants.
