Hoxton

Hoxton is a comedy-focused bar and event venue at 120 W Hastings St in Gastown, Vancouver. Its format brings together live comedy, food and drinks in a setting designed for social evenings and programmed entertainment. The venue presents itself as a place where comedy sits alongside a food menu and a full bar, making it suitable for guests looking to pair a show with a meal or drinks.

The atmosphere is energetic and entertainment-led, with the room also functioning as a flexible creative space. Comedy shows form the central focus, while trivia and other scheduled events add variety to the calendar. Event timing and programming can vary, so the venue’s listings provide the clearest guide to what is taking place.

Beyond regular service and comedy programming, Hoxton accommodates private parties, corporate gatherings, brand events and pop-ups. The space includes seating, bar facilities and a sound system, with a layout that can adapt to different event formats. Those qualities also support film and television productions, music video shoots and other visual projects seeking a bar setting with an active, urban character.

Food is part of the experience rather than an afterthought, with dishes prepared for the venue’s menu and served alongside drinks from the bar. The combination gives Hoxton a broader role than a conventional comedy room, appealing to diners, comedy audiences, event hosts, production teams and brands seeking a venue for an activation.

Hoxton suits casual nights built around laughs, drinks and shared food, as well as organised gatherings that need an adaptable room. Its Gastown location places it within a neighbourhood known for restaurants, bars and entertainment venues, while the address on West Hastings Street provides a central setting for comedy, hospitality and creative events.
