John Mulaney: Mulaney Takes Manhattan (Beacon, Carnegie Hall, Radio City, MSG)

Mulaney is the most quotable stand-up of his generation and his New York material lands hardest in New York. The venue ladder is the hook: the Beacon and Carnegie nights are the intimate ones, and Carnegie Hall in particular almost never hosts stand-up. The MSG closer will be the biggest comedy show in the city this winter.

What to expect

A roughly 90-minute show with an opening act. Phones are typically locked in Yondr pouches at Mulaney shows, so plan on a screen-free evening. Beacon and Carnegie tickets sell out fastest; MSG has the most availability.

Good to know

  • Each night is a separate ticket sold through the venue: Beacon and MSG via Ticketmaster, Carnegie Hall via carnegiehall.org, Radio City via Ticketmaster.
  • Yondr phone pouches are standard at Mulaney shows; arrive early for the pouch line.
  • Carnegie Hall's Stern Auditorium seats 2,800 with acoustic clarity that suits stand-up.
  • All four venues are on the 1/2/3 or B/D/F lines; the Beacon is at 74th and Broadway.
  • Resale prices for the Carnegie night run highest; the MSG night is the value option.

Common questions

Is it the same show every night?

It is the same new hour across the four rooms; the venue is the variable.

Can I bring my phone?

You can bring it, but expect it to be locked in a Yondr pouch for the duration of the show.
