Open Mics in California

A listing on badslava.com lists this night, but may not be current.

Weekly on Thursdays, 9:00 PM. Only one source reports it.

Secondhand sources suggest the venue runs some open-mic-style programming, but no dated, checkable page confirms a Thursday night specifically, and the venue's real website could not be located (checked Aug 31, 2026).

Weekly on Thursdays, 7:30 PM. Only one source reports it.

A regional open-mic calendar site, checked Aug 31, 2026, lists a dated Thursday, Sept 3, 2026 instance of this event at this exact address, branded 'Everloving Comedy,' with a specific sign-up process via Instagram or Facebook message on Wednesdays, 2-8 PM [s1].

The sources disagree on the night.

A regional open-mic calendar site, checked Aug 31, 2026, lists a dated Wednesday, Sept 2, 2026 instance of this event at 1903 S Coast Hwy, sign-up by 6:30 PM [s1]. This contradicts an earlier, uncorroborated Thursday claim; only one forward instance was seen, so confidence is medium. As of Sept 5, the Venue's Website shows too little text to confirm or rule out the event, so its earlier silence on the topic is not evidence.

The venue's own events system, checked Sept 1, 2026, confirms upcoming instances for Sunday, Sept 6 and Sunday, Sept 13, 2026, with 'Every Sunday' recurrence data, both recomputed to genuinely be Sundays [s1]. A separate, differently dated live-music listing on the same calendar shows the system is actively populated rather than a fixed template.

The venue's events page lists this event, but may not be current.

The venue's own shows page did not mention an open mic on Aug 31, 2026 [s2]. It showed the same on Sep 1, 2026 [s3]. On Sep 5, 2026, a made-up address on the same site showed nearly identical content, so that silence cannot be trusted to reflect what is really on the page [s4]. Sign-ups are by an emailed audio or video clip, not a walk-in list, so whether this counts as an open mic is unresolved.

A page on orangecountystandup.com lists this event, but may not be current.

The Venue's Website was blocked on every attempt (checked Aug 31, 2026), which is not evidence either way. The only other source still lists this event, but that page's own edit stamp is Jan 24, 2026, about seven months old, and its maintainer admits the list isn't kept current [s1]. Neither source gives a dated signal about the event itself either way.

The Venue's Website lists this event, but may not be current.

An open-mic listing site, checked Sept 1, 2026, lists five dated September 2026 instances of this event, all confirmed to fall on Tuesdays [s1]. A previously unfound, genuinely readable page on the Venue's Website corroborates the event and its host's name [s2].

Both sources give the same night and time, but neither confirms recent activity.

Occasional.

The college's own day-view calendar lists this 'Open Mic & Talent Show' on Nov 18, 2025, about nine and a half months before Sept 1, 2026 [s2]. A similar instance appears a year earlier, on Nov 21, 2024 [s1]. No Fall 2026 date had been published yet as of Sept 1, 2026, which is expected this early in the semester rather than a sign the program has lapsed.

The sources disagree on the night.

Three distinct 2026 dates, May 19, Jul 21, and Aug 18, are attested across reseller and ticketing sites, suggesting real booked shows rather than a template. One reseller listing shows the May 19 date [s1]. A ticketing site shows the Aug 18 date [s2]. Neither the Venue's Website nor a local tourism site could be read on repeated attempts (checked Sep 1, 2026), so this rests entirely on reseller corroboration.

The museum's own events page (checked Sept 1, 2026) lists a upcoming recurrence for Sept 3, 10, 17, 24, and Oct 1, 2026, each a week apart, matching the weekly Thursday schedule [s4]. Its description -- an Open Mic Night with poetry group Props 2 Poetry, run by Erika and Arturo Castellanos -- is unchanged since Aug 15, 2026 [s1]. A later check found the same [s2]. A review site confirmed only the address [s3].

Weekly on Wednesdays, 7:00 PM. Something about this has changed recently — confirm before going.

A tourism-bureau listing (checked Sep 1, 2026) says the venue hosts a weekly Open Mic on Wednesday at 7 p.m., with distinct curated comedy shows on select Thursday and Saturday nights [s4]. This replaces an earlier guess of a Monday-and-Wednesday schedule drawn from an older regional feature. The Venue's Website does not use the phrase 'open mic' but shows current business hours [s5].

The Venue's Website lists this night, but may not be current.

Weekly on Wednesdays. Only one source reports it.

The venue's own structured events listing confirms a weekly Wednesday Comedy Night (checked Aug 31, 2026) [s1]. Whether it's open-signup is unestablished, and other unconfirmed information naming a promoter leans toward a curated booked show rather than an open mic. A comedy-focused Los Angeles source that might resolve this gave an error and couldn't help.

A listing on badslava.com lists this night, but may not be current.

Weekly on Thursdays, 7:00 PM. Only one source reports it.

No source confirms an open mic at Der Wolf (as of Sep 2026). The Venue's Website, read in full, never mentions one, and the open-mic listing sites that carry this event disagree with each other about its type.

A listing on badslava.com lists this night, but may not be current.

Weekly on Wednesdays, 8:00 PM. Only one source reports it.

As of September 2026, no source — including the venue's own fully checked page — confirms a Wednesday open mic at The Blind Donkey. The status is held to unknown.

A local news article, dated July 16, 2026, describes 'Breaking The Ice' at this venue as a currently-running, free, recurring stand-up open mic in its California Room, in the present tense [s1]. The news outlet's currency was confirmed by another article in the same section published Aug 31, 2026. A curated comedy open-mic list corroborates Thursday as the day [s2].

The venue's own dedicated 'Open Mic Night (Fridays)' page lists a dated instance on Apr 17, 2026, 4-7 PM, with the text 'Every Friday in April & May!' [s1]. Checked again on Sept 1, 2026, the venue's live events listing does not mention the open mic at all [s2]. Since the stated season is April through May, this absence in September is read as seasonal rather than a sign the event has ended.

A page on travelpaso.com lists this night, but may not be current.

A city tourism nightlife listing names Pine Street Saloon's Monday open mic [s1]. As of Sep 1, 2026, a guessed version of the Venue's Website did not load and a review site could not be checked, so neither confirms nor refutes the event; no new information was found, and the status is unchanged from the prior check.

Both sources list this event, but neither confirms recent activity.

The venue's own events page (checked Sep 3, 2026) lists a specific dated show, 'Jazz Jam w/ Andrew Sedley Trio,' on Thursday, Sep 3, 2026 -- the first Thursday of the month, matching a claimed monthly jazz-jam cadence [s1]. A local newspaper feature separately describes a second, 2nd/4th-Thursday rock and blues jam [s2]. No dated instance of that jam appears on the venue's events page, checked for Sep 10 and Sep 24 [s1].

Both sources give the same night and time, but neither confirms recent activity.

An open-mic listing site's map shows Antler's Tavern's next Tuesday jam falling on Sep 1, 2026 [s1]. The same site's own venue page separately confirms it as a 21-and-over blues 'Music Session,' with the house band playing 7 to 7:50 PM followed by the jam at 8 PM, and lists a phone number for the venue [s2]. No separate Venue's Website could be found to cross-check.

Both sources give the same night and time, but neither confirms recent activity.

An open-mic listing site's map (checked Sep 1, 2026) shows CJ's Sports Bar's Wednesday jam with a genuinely upcoming date [s1]. The same site's own venue page confirms it as a 21-and-over rock jam session with a named host and lists a phone number and email for the venue [s2]. No other Venue's Website could be found to cross-check.

Occasional. Only one source reports it.

An open-mic listing site, checked Sept 1, 2026, lists this Sunday mic's next date as Aug 30, 2026, with the schedule marked custom/irregular rather than a fixed weekly or monthly pattern [s1]. The Venue's Website reads 'Open mic, comedy, live music, special events, and more,' naming the open mic directly [s2].

The sources disagree about whether it still runs.

A local visitor site's own listing gives this venue's address as 11201 CA-1, Point Reyes Station (checked Sep 1, 2026) [s1]. That site's venue calendar contains real, dated shows -- including a touring tribute act on Sep 4, 2026 -- but never mentions 'open mic,' 'comedy,' or 'Monday' programming [s1]. A comedy listing site's California calendar (checked Aug 31, 2026) doesn't add anything conclusive [s2].

The sources disagree about whether it still runs.

As of September 2026, no source newer than 2022 confirms this Thursday poetry program. The venue's own History page makes no mention of it [s1]. Its current Events page says the same [s2]. An attempt to reach the program's social media page failed. A long-running program isn't disproven just by its absence from the venue's general pages, so status is held to unknown.

A page on getngigs.com lists this night, but may not be current.

As of September 2026, the Venue's Website remained unreachable across repeated sessions. A gig-listing site says an open mic is part of this room's regular programming [s1]. Another gig-listing site agrees, but the two disagree on which Tuesdays it falls on, and neither is dated to 2026. The status is held to unknown.

The Venue's Website suggests it may have ended.

Weekly on Saturdays, 6:00 PM. The Venue's Website does not mention it.

As of September 2026, Innovation Brew Works' own homepage, checked, still makes no mention of an open mic [s1]. A social-media post titled 'Open Mic Night is back for the...' suggests a Saturday-evening open mic may exist or have resumed, but it could not be verified, and two other pages on the Venue's Website could not be reached. Since the signals conflict, status is held to unknown.

The Venue's Website lists this night, but may not be current.

The Venue's Website lists this event, but may not be current.

Checked Sep 1, 2026: the chain's own location-selector page still lists Rancho Cucamonga as an active location [s1]. This specific location's own page could not be reached under any of the guessed addresses tried, so no location-specific confirmation of the event's current day, time, or frequency exists. No evidence points to the event having ended either, so the status is held to unknown.
