Things to do in Miami this week that don’t involve bottle service

If your weekend was a blur of bad decisions — congratulations on keeping the Miami identity alive. However, Monday gives you two options: sit at home and try to piece together what you've done to your liver and finances, or come to Thank You Miami and laugh it off with us. Your gut can be happier once you've tried some of the munchies here. Comics get bold, the crowd leans in, and the beer keeps flowing. Start the week the fun way, with laughs, not leftover regret.

Every Wednesday at Fritz & Franz Bierhaus in Coral Gables, you get comedy, confessions, and a little chaos inside a German beer hall that feels nothing like the Miami you’re used to. Imported beers that somehow skipped the tariffs, hearty German meals, and locals confessing the kinds of “only in Miami” disasters you’ve definitely lived through yourself. The twist? The “wurst” performance wins a boot full of beer. Hosted by Manny Garavito, it’s Coral Gables’ weirdest new tradition — and easily the most fun option your midweek has been missing.

You never know what you’re walking into at The Killing Joke, and honestly, that’s the point. One night it’s roasts, the next it’s surprise guests, sometimes it’s open mic chaos that gets way too real. And when the comedy wraps, DJ's take over and the party always goes late. It’s Downtown Miami on a Thursday, which means we're starting the weekend early, while you’re here, laughing first and dancing after.

Friday night splits Miami in two: the people who need to unwind after a week that beat them up, and the maniacs who treat Friday like the starter pistol for 72 hours of chaos. At Thank You Miami, both tribes collide. Comics unload their wildest bits, the crowd fuels up on beer and burgers, and somehow the chill vibe and the “let’s go hard” vibe fit under the same roof. Whether you’re laughing off your week or pre-gaming for the weekend, this is where Friday officially begins for the locals who love to laugh.

If you follow Miami Comedy because deep down you know you’re capable of being a comedian in this city… you’re probably right. But here’s the catch: Miami will chew you up if you go on stage unprepared. The crowds are wild, the rooms are unpredictable, and “winging it” only gets you so far before you bomb.

That’s where coaching comes in.

We’ll work one-on-one to take whatever raw funny you’ve got and shape it into something that lands. You’ll build confidence, sharpen your delivery, and develop a voice that works in front of any Miami crowd, from a dive bar open mic to a packed Brickell showroom.

Bottom line: if you’ve ever thought “I could do that,” this is how you actually do it. Sign up to see if we are a good match.
