10.2.1The week, as the club runs it

Yuk Yuk's Edmonton follows a pattern that is easy to plan around. Thursday is Pro-Am Night. Friday and Saturday belong to a headliner who brings a supporting line-up: in November 2026 the listings named Mike Dambra, Kris LaBelle, Noah Brodeur and Kyle Lucey on consecutive weekends, and Ben Bauce in early December. The first weekend's times were 7:30 pm on Friday and 7 pm and 9:30 pm on Saturday.

10.2.2Five rules that shape the evening

Doors open an hour early. Seating is first come, first served. Guests staying upstairs have the shortest walk to the queue; use that advantage.
18+ and ID. The club allows no minors on the premises and asks for government-issued ID for the casino and the club. Everyone in your party needs it, including people who look older.
Uncensored. The club says so plainly. If someone in your group dislikes strong language, this is not their night.
About 90 minutes to two hours. With a 9:30 pm start, you will be out close to midnight.
A processing fee online. The club charges one on web tickets; our desk sells no tickets, so this is between you and the club.

10.2.3Which night to request

Matching the show to a room night
Your show	Room night to request	Why
Thursday Pro-Am	Thursday	No headliner listed; the Grill opens Thursdays from 4 pm
Friday 7:30 pm	Friday	Dinner, show, bed; Saturday free for the city or the races
Saturday 7 pm	Saturday	Early show leaves time for the sports bar afterwards
Saturday 9:30 pm	Saturday	Late finish; the reason to sleep in the building
New Year's Eve 10:30 pm	31 December	The show crosses midnight; with 26 rooms, ask early

10.2.4Choosing the room

Two friends: the Double Queen, the only type with two beds.
A couple: the King. The hotel's own King-room copy invites you to unwind after “a Showroom concert or Yuk Yuk's comedy show”.
A small celebration: the King Suite, whose living room is a place to meet before the doors open.

10.2.5Beyond November

Special shows are listed into May 2027: Scott Thompson at the end of January, Uncle Hack (listed as adult-rated) in February, Pernille Haaland on a Thursday in late February, Jerry Wayne Longmire in March, Sean Collins and Brett Forte and Friends in May. Section 4.1 has the full dated table. The club notes that acts are subject to change.
