No Outside Alcohol

Outside alcohol is not allowed.  All bags and coolers will be checked at the entrance.

Food/Picnic

Food trucks will be on-site at each show with a selection of delicious appetizers and meal options to purchase.   You can also bring your own food and desserts to enjoy at the show, but please support our food vendors when you can so they continue to participate.  Please dispose of all of your food waste & trash before you leave.

Wine & Beverage Sales

The Retzlaff tasting room sells wine and non-alcoholic beverages before and during the shows. 

Limited Parking Available

Enter and drive the long gravel driveway and follow directions to park among the grapevine rows.  Note: parking is in an unpaved vineyard, so plan accordingly. Special Needs parking is available near the entrance to the performance grounds. 

We encourage carpooling, designated drivers or using a ride share.  When parking runs out, you will be directed to over-flow parking about 1 block away.

Accessibility Accommodations

Please email customerservice@comedyuncorked.com to discuss any assistance you need before the show.   During the show,  see a staff member on-site who will assist you with your seating.

No Pets, Children Not Recommended

As much as we love animals, pets at the show may be distracting and a worry for some guests. Trained service dogs are ok. Children are ok if you’re in a pinch, but be aware that much of the content in the performances may not be appropriate for children.

No Smoking, Thank You

Retzlaff Estate Vineyards, including the grounds, is a non-smoking facility.

Performers Not Guaranteed

Illness, travel delays and other unforeseen conflicts do happen for our comics.  We will occasionally need to replace a performer and refunds are not offered for these changes.
