Welcome to what is probably the fastest-paced stand-up competition in the city! At the BOING! Comedy Club, the Jackpot Slam offers you a format that stands out for its pace, diversity and genuine emotions. Up to 12 comedians compete on a single evening, each presenting their very best material in 5 minutes. From bold newcomers to seasoned pros – on this stage, only the moment and the quality of the jokes matter.

The audience as the jury
What makes this show special: You're not just a spectator – you're part of the jury! After the performances, you and the rest of the audience decide who gave the best performance of the evening. It's all or nothing: Whoever wins takes home the coveted jackpot. This interaction creates an unparalleled level of excitement in the auditorium that you won't experience at any ordinary comedy show.

Humour with heart and conviction
Host Manuel Wolff charmingly guides you through the evening and ensures that, despite the competition, one thing always remains at the centre: the shared enjoyment of top-class entertainment. For years, BOING! Comedy has stood for authentic stand-up comedy with principles. We are passionately committed to diversity and against discrimination – true to our motto “Love instead of hate.” Enjoy an evening that brings people together and celebrates the triumph of intellect and humour. Centrally located in Cologne, this comedy slam is the perfect highlight for your evening in the city of the cathedral!
