Wondering where to meet people in Zürich? Tired of hiking and meetup groups? Join local English-speaking comedians and new-comers for a Thursday night of comedy...

Looking for a fun, easy way to meet new people in Zürich after work? Every Thursday night, Comedy Brew transforms ROBIN’s (Zähringerstrasse 33, Niederdorf) into a lively mix of laughs, locals and low-key networking. Swiss residents, newcomers and tourists swap hiking boots for bar stools as a rotating lineup of English-speaking comedians—seasoned pros and brave first-timers alike—test fresh jokes on stage.

What makes Comedy Brew special isn’t just the punchlines. Between sets and after the show, the room buzzes with relaxed conversation: expats sharing insider tips on Swiss life, locals comparing favourite fondue spots, visitors collecting ideas for weekend trips. Grab a drink, slide into a table and you’ll leave with more than a good story—you’ll have new contacts and perhaps even future hiking (or après-ski) partners.
