Step into Cages and you’ll feel it instantly: this isn’t a tiny hidden-room open mic—it’s big, loud, and built for a crowd. JokeUp Comedy brings its English stand-up comedy open mic to one of our largest venues, inside a well-known chain brand that started in Shanghai and has grown across multiple cities.
This is where the open mic levels up. The room has that “Friday night energy” even on a random weekday—more space, more people, and a stage that makes every punchline hit harder. You’ll see a mix of performers: experienced comics sharpening new material, first-timers getting their first real taste of the spotlight, and everyone in between. The jokes are pure Guangzhou-in-English: culture shock, language fails, dating stories, work drama, stereotypes, and those little everyday moments that only make sense when you’re living here.
The best part? Even with the bigger venue feel, it still has that open mic magic—strangers turning into friends between sets, groups mixing, and a crowd that actually wants you to do well (and will laugh loudly when you do).
Whether you’re an expat looking for a proper night out, a local practicing English the fun way, or just someone who loves live comedy with high energy, Cages is the perfect place to:
Watch English stand-up comedy in a big venue
Meet a diverse crowd from Guangzhou’s international scene
Feel the rush of a real stage—especially if you sign up to perform
Come for the drinks, stay for the laughs, and leave with new friends and new inside jokes.
If you’re searching for English comedy in Guangzhou, an open mic with a bigger crowd, or a high-energy night out at a famous city brand, Cages + JokeUp Comedy is your move.
