Ilana Glazer Live! at The Belasco

Ilana Glazer is doing stand-up at The Belasco on Thursday, October 15, 2026. If you're scanning upcoming events in Los Angeles for a mid-October night out that isn't another bar crawl, this one's worth circling.

Most people know Glazer from Broad City, the Comedy Central series she created and starred in with Abbi Jacobson. It started as a web series, ran five seasons on TV, and turned two broke New Yorkers into a whole generation's comfort watch. Glazer has kept busy since. Her stand-up special The Planet Is Burning landed on Amazon Prime Video in 2020, and she co-wrote and starred in the horror film False Positive the following year. Her stage act leans on the same things that made Ilana Wexler so fun to watch: loud opinions, bodies, politics, and a lot of physical energy.

The show itself has a few house rules you'll want to know before you buy. It's a 15+ event, so leave the younger kids at home. It's also a fully reserved, seated show, and the venue is blunt about it: the seats you pick are the seats you'll sit in that night. Take a minute with the seating chart. Doors open at 6 PM and the show starts at 7 PM.

The Belasco sits at 1050 South Hill Street, a restored 1920s theater with an ornate interior that now mostly hosts concerts and club nights. A comedy set in a room like this feels different from a strip-mall club. The sightlines are good, and the crowd tends to be there on purpose.

For accessibility questions or to request an accommodation, the venue asks you to email THEBELASCO@LIVENATION.COM or call (213) 531-0580. Do that before show day if you can.

Getting there: the theater is on the south edge of Downtown, near 11th Street. Metro's Pico station is within walking distance, and several paid lots around Hill and Broadway fill up by showtime on busy nights. Rideshare drop-off on Hill Street is the easy option. Ticket prices weren't listed in the feed we pulled from, so check Ticketmaster through the link above for current pricing and availability.

Glazer doesn't tour LA constantly, and a 7 PM start means you're out early enough to grab a late dinner nearby. For more things to do in Los Angeles, see our Downtown LA neighborhood guide and the full comedy events calendar.
