Midweek Crisis is Barcelona’s weekly stand-up comedy showcase with a twist — comedians don’t just tell jokes, they also solve the audience’s problems.

Hosted by the dynamic duo Mariah Girouard and Mila Kopaeva, this midweek comedy clinic features around 7 sharp, international comedians, each performing a short stand-up set before taking on real-life dilemmas submitted anonymously by the audience. Whether it's relationship woes, work stress, or awkward social encounters, the comics give it their best (and funniest) shot. The result is a high-energy, interactive comedy show that blends therapeutic catharsis with sharp punchlines and spontaneous crowd work. Set in The Lounge at The Comedy Clubhouse: Laietana, the atmosphere is fun, friendly, and slightly chaotic in the best way.

Tickets are just €5 online or €7 at the door, making this one of the best value nights out in the city. The bar and restaurant are open from 6:30pm, offering drinks and delicious comfort food to kick off your evening. If you’re new in town, on a date, or just having a rough week, this show is the perfect pick-me-up. It’s been a local favorite for years, and you’ll see why as soon as the first comic hits the stage.
