The National Comedy Center and Lucille Ball Desi Arnaz Museum are open for visitors Thursdays through Mondays. The health and safety of our guests is our highest priority. We have implemented our award-winning LaughSafe health and safety program, developed in consultation with epidemiologists and health professionals at leading health provider UPMC, to ensure a safe, worry-free and touch-free visitor experience. Dr. Graham Snyder, Chief Epidemiologist at UPMC, recently lauded the National Comedy Center’s “absolutely superlative approach to keeping people safe” in an interview with The Buffalo News.
We request that guests reserve their admission tickets online in advance to ensure reservation time as we reduce capacity for safe social distancing. All guests and staff will be required to wear face masks at all times, and undergo a temperature check prior to entry.
More information on our LaughSafe program can be found at ComedyCenter.org/LaughSafe. We look forward to welcoming you to the National Comedy Center and Lucille Ball Desi Arnaz Museum.
Please support the non-profit National Comedy Center so that it can
continue its mission and ongoing operations during this critical time.
We need your support now more than ever.
