Last minute plans are some of the best. Free last minute plans are even better. The list of free things to do in Austin felt a little short, so we’ve been steadily adding new weekly shows to our calendar that cost nothing, zilch, nada. Free. The city might be expensive, but the comedy doesn’t have to be.

There aren’t a lot of Austin comedy clubs that have free weekly shows hosting some of the biggest names in stand-up. If you just paid rent and still wanna make date night memorable, swing by The Creek for one of our many free shows.
