The first Venice Collection was a legendary night. As the world began shaking off the dust of COVID-19, we threw one of the most unforgettable comedy shows Venice had ever seen. We transformed 2315 Oakwood Ave into a pop-up comedy venue—stage, lights, music, 300 + guests, and the type of vibe only Venice can bring.

The lineup was stacked: Bryan Callen, Darius Bennett, Lachlan Patterson, Erica Piccininni, and Jonathan Kite all delivered next level sets, with a surprise drop-in by none other than Andy Dick. IYKYK! The night was steered by Venice’s own wild card and comedy legend, Bronston Jones.

Item 1 of 26

Venice Collection 1 truly was a reset button on life—and proof that magic happens when we come together.

The evening opened with an art show, where local artists showcased and sold their work. As guests filtered in, pefectly curated music was playing, the drinks were flowing, and the energy was building. Magicians Al Naz and Will Coile roamed the crowd performing close-up magic, keeping everyone on their toes.

805 kept the beers cold and flowing, while the team from CAM in Cali brought the flowery goodness that tied the whole vibe together.

It was a sold-out night of comedy and connection—a chance to reset, to feel normal again, and to celebrate being together.
