Frankie Marcos - in the Callback Bar

Located in the Howe ‘Bout Arden center within Sacramento’s Arden-Arcade neighborhood, the Callback Bar is the intimate lounge and secondary performance space for the legendary Punch Line Sacramento. Since the main club’s debut in 1991, the venue has served as a central hub for Northern California’s comedy community. The Callback Bar provides a warm, inviting atmosphere where fans can gather for pre-show drinks or enjoy dedicated performances that highlight the club’s long-standing commitment to the craft of stand-up. The room specializes in a diverse array of shows, including popular open mic nights and "The Callback" showcases featuring rising regional talent. While the venue’s main stage has famously hosted icons such as Dave Chappelle, Gabriel Iglesias, and Jo Koy, the Callback Bar offers a personal setting to discover emerging comedians. It is an ideal destination for any comedy enthusiast looking to experience the rich history and vibrant future of Sacramento’s premier comedy institution.
