About The Comedy Barn Theater

If your group wants laughs without a late dinner, the Comedy Barn is the easy answer. It is a family-friendly variety show at 2775 Parkway in Pigeon Forge, built on clean comedy, a live band, clogging, animal acts, juggling and a fair amount of audience participation.

What you will see

The official description lists clean comedy, live music, clogging, animal acts and juggling. The performers and acts rotate, so the show changes over time, which makes it one of the few Parkway shows you could reasonably see again on a later trip and still get something new.

The material stays family-friendly, so grandparents, parents and kids can sit in the same row without anyone wincing. Audience participation is part of it, so expect to get pulled in if you are sitting near the front and look like a good sport.

Dinner and snacks

Dinner is not included in the Comedy Barn show itself, which is what separates it from the dinner shows down the road. Snacks and drinks are sold on site, and there is a gift shop with exclusive merchandise and souvenirs. Gift cards are available online.

Combos

The theater sells combo deals that pair the Comedy Barn with dinner shows, including Hatfield & McCoy Dinner Feud, Dolly Parton's Stampede and Pirates Voyage. If you want a two-night entertainment run, that is the way to do it, since you can lock in both shows in one booking. Ask about current combos when you book through the official site.

Tickets and schedule

The main page does not list show length, seat counts, ticket prices or 2026 showtimes. Those live on the separate show schedule and booking pages, so check them for your date before you plan the rest of the day. A Christmas show is linked from the site menu, although the pages available do not list dates, so confirm if you are visiting in the holiday season.

Groups of 20 or more get discounted rates, and the venue hosts private events. If you are bringing a church group, a family reunion or a bus tour, call 865-428-5222 and ask about group booking.

Planning tips

Because there is no dinner built in, the show slots into a Parkway day more flexibly than a dinner show does. You can eat before or after at any of the restaurants nearby, then walk in for the show. That also makes it a good fit for travelers with dietary restrictions, since you control the meal.

A variety show is also an easy pick when your group is split on tastes, because there is something in it for different ages without leaning on one style of entertainment. For contact details, the contact page lists the theater's information, and the box office phone is 865-428-5222.
