OAKLAND, CA, UNITED STATES, November 26, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Comedy Oakland, the East Bay’s longest-running independent stand-up comedy series, is expanding once again. Beginning December 2025, Comedy Oakland will launch a new run of shows at The Elbo Room Jack London, marking the club’s fifth official venue and continuing its mission to bring world-class comedy to every corner of Oakland.

Located in the historic Jack London district, The Elbo Room is a beloved two-story nightlife landmark known for its vibrant atmosphere, eclectic programming, and strong connection to Oakland culture. Starting this December, audiences will experience Comedy Oakland’s signature stand-up showcases inside this iconic venue — featuring rotating lineups of nationally touring comedians, rising Bay Area talent, and fan-favorite performers.

“The Elbo Room is a perfect fit for what we do,” said Samson Koletkar, founder of Comedy Oakland. “It’s energetic, it’s iconic, and it reflects the diversity and creativity of Oakland. We’re excited to bring our comedians to this stage and continue expanding the city’s comedy footprint.”

Elbo Room management also expressed excitement about the new partnership:
“We’re thrilled to bring Comedy Oakland into The Elbo Room family. Our venue has always been about great music, great drinks, and great energy — adding stand-up comedy just makes sense. We can’t wait for Oakland to experience a new kind of night out with us.”
— Elbo Room Management
