What To Expect From Casper's Comedy Scene In 2026

Casper, Wyoming, is becoming a comedy hotspot, and the Rialto Theater is one of the driving forces behind it. Since reopening and offering comedy shows and concerts, many well-known comedians have come to Casper.

All too often, I've heard the words, "There is nothing ever to do in Casper," and think to myself, have you not seen the comedy lineup at the Rialto? Or, seen the concert lineup for Gaslight?

Since November 1, comedians Kevin Farley, John Caparulo, Maria Bamford, Jamie Lissow, and Tom Arnold have all been on stage, with Daric Lynne and Sam Adams still to come in 2025. That's only the comedy line-up for two months of this year. If you go look at past events on the Rialto Casper's Facebook page, you can see more of the names who've been here. The names are already stacking up for 2026.

I know you may be thinking this is a paid advertisement, but actually, it's me saying: don't let these golden opportunities pass you by.

Speaking of 'Golden,' you have the option to purchase a 'Golden Ticket' to the Casper Entertainment Group's events for 2026. That means you pay one price and get tickets to every show at The Rialto and Gaslight Social, and if they branch out to other venues, you get tickets to those shows as well.

If you, or someone in your family, is a huge comedy or concert person, this package is right up your alley.

With a Golden Ticket, you’ll receive:

• 2 Tickets to EVERY concert and comedy show at The Rialto, Gaslight Social, and other participating events in Wyoming. Reservations are required.

• 25% off all group tables seating options, including tables, mezzanine seating, and premium packages.

• Early ticket access for upcoming shows (when available).

• Exclusive Golden Ticket offers and special promotions throughout the year.

• Waived cover charges for two to all non-ticketed events at The Gaslight Social and other venues when appropriate.

• No blackout dates. Valid for all public events under CEG’s Tixr ticketing umbrella from the date of purchase through December 31, 2026, ensuring you’re covered for the whole summer season and beyond.

You can check out the 2026 schedule and get more information about the Golden Ticket on the Casper Entertainment Group's website.
