Tour Patterns And Source Notes

The Chicago run at Zanies functions as a compact residency with five sets across three days. There is one show on Thursday, two on Friday, and two on Saturday. This structure aligns with how Zanies typically books touring headliners at its Near North Side location at 1548 North Wells Street.

The Austin stop at The Red Room at Cap City Comedy Club – Complex spans two consecutive nights, October 23 and 24. StubHub lists the Saturday show at a higher price than Friday, which reflects typical weekend demand. As of September 2026, Ali Macofsky was on an active national headlining tour. Bandsintown listed 21 upcoming shows in cities including Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Chicago, Austin, Detroit, Irving, and San Diego. This context places the October window within a larger 2026 touring cycle.

Aggregator platforms occasionally conflict on specific dates. Some list an October 4 Chicago show or omit the October 2 late set. The official Zanies calendar confirms the October 1–3 Chicago run and the five-show structure. For Austin, Macofsky’s dates at The Red Room at Cap City Comedy Club – Complex are October 23 and 24, 2026, both at 7:30 PM. Listings that mention an October 25 Austin show do not match the venue’s published information.

How To Plan Your Night

Choosing A City: Chicago offers five shows across three nights at Zanies, with tickets listed at $37 on the venue’s event page. Austin’s two-night stop suits travelers who prefer a late-October weekend in a single venue.

Arrival Timing: For the Chicago dates, doors open at 6:00 PM for 7:00 PM shows and at 8:45 PM for 9:15 PM sets. Early arrival improves your chances of preferred seating because Zanies seats on a first-come basis.

Age And ID: Zanies Chicago treats all Ali Macofsky shows as strictly 21+. Every guest must show valid photo ID. The ticket purchaser needs to present their driver’s license at will call, since the club does not issue physical or digital tickets for these events.

Drink Minimum: Zanies applies a two-item minimum per person on top of the ticket price. Non-alcoholic drinks and food typically count, but confirm any specific concerns with the venue.

Where To Buy: Use the Ticketmaster links above for direct access to Chicago primary-market tickets. For Austin, StubHub currently lists available seats, and Cap City Comedy Club’s own site may post additional on-sale options. Resale prices on third-party platforms can sit well above face value.
