Prime Club - Le Complexe, Lyon

Prime Club at Le Complexe - Salle du Bas

At Le Complexe - Salle du Bas, we love nights that feel immediate, electric, and a little unpredictable, which is exactly why we are thrilled to host Prime Club. Curated as a fast-paced stand-up showcase, Prime Club gathers a handpicked roster of comics who are shaping the new energy of the scene, mixing test material with razor-sharp crowd-pleasers. Our intimate basement room puts you within a breath of the stage: low ceiling, close seating, and a listening audience that amplifies every beat, every pause, every punchline. It’s a setting built for live discovery, where an MC opens the night, introduces a rolling lineup, and surprise guests can pop in without fanfare. For us as a venue, this is the essence of what Le Complexe - Salle du Bas stands for: a laboratory for live performance that still delivers a polished, prime-time feel. Whether you come to spot tomorrow’s headliners or simply want a concentrated dose of laughter, Prime Club turns a weeknight into a happening.

Who’s on the mic, and what’s buzzing right now

Prime Club is a banner more than a single name, and its momentum is visible in the credits that trail its regulars: recent appearances tied to Le Jamel Comedy Club, sets caught at Montreux Comedy Festival, and televised spots on Paname Comedy Club have made the rounds online. As a venue, we’ve seen these comics arrive with sets that evolve show to show—tight ten-minute missiles one week, extended stories the next. Expect bits that audiences have been quoting on socials, with sketch titles making the rounds like “Le VTC à 8h du matin,” “Ma mère sur WhatsApp,” and “Le coloc qui ne paie jamais.” The Prime Club spirit is to keep the carousel turning: six to eight comedians, concise sets, smart transitions, a host who reads the room, and a collective sense that you’re watching ideas get minted live. We hear the buzz in the lobby before doors open—people trading favorites from recent clips on Quotidien and Clique, or talking about that Montreux gala where a punchline landed so hard it trended by sunrise. Prime Club brings that streaming-era notoriety into the room, where timing, silence, and eye contact still rule.

For this date at Le Complexe - Salle du Bas, our team is tailoring the experience with the venue’s signature attention to detail: warm lighting, crisp sound, and a pace that keeps the laughs per minute high without losing the feel of a crafted show. Arrive early for the best seats; the closeness to the stage is part of the thrill, and yes, the comics do clock the front row. We love how Prime Club embraces the city as a character—local observations and Lyon-flavored asides that hit different in our basement. And we’re seeing new names break out through the night’s rotation, often off the back of short-form videos that echo the sketches you’ll hear: “Le date à 12,90€,” “Le prof de sport traumatisé par l’EPS,” or “L’open space en télétravail.” Some acts may have been heard on France Inter or spotted at Avignon Off, others are fresh from their first festival, but in our room, they share the same stage time and the same mission: build something undeniable, right here, right now. That’s the Prime Club promise we’re proud to host—an evening that captures the agility of today’s stand-up and the communal charge that only a live room like Le Complexe - Salle du Bas can deliver.
