As a passionate movie enthusiast, I can’t help but share my excitement over the star-studded gathering at Saturday Night Live’s 50th Anniversary special! This spectacular event has undeniably made its mark as one of the most anticipated TV happenings in 2025. The details surrounding this historic weekend have been trickling out daily, and the latest tidbit comes from comedian Nate Bargatze. And Can you believe it? What a wild ride!

Over the weekend, numerous renowned comedians visited New York City to pay tribute to a highly acclaimed sketch comedy show. Despite having a limited schedule during their stay, what do these comedians often find themselves doing in their free time? As per TikTok user Bargatze’s post, they would frequently hang out at one of the most esteemed and iconic comedy clubs in NYC – The Comedy Cellar, famous for its surprise appearances by big-name comedians testing new material.

Indeed, it turns out that the comedy lineup for the night was graced by the stars of Saturday Night Live, each one delivering a stellar performance just like the others, as humorist Nate Bargatze pointed out.

Up they all ascended, including David Spade, Chris Rock, and later on, the show’s host. The initial host was followed by Steve Martin, then Martin Short, John Mulaney, and Leslie Jones also graced the stage. We were in awe, thinking this had to be one of the stronger lineups. Then, one after another, they kept coming! Boom! Boom! It just didn’t stop.

The 45-year-old compiled a star-studded list featuring himself, David Spade, Chris Rock, Steve Martin, Martin Short, John Mulaney, and Leslie Jones. This incredible and top-tier lineup was nothing short of extraordinary and would have been a dream come true for any Saturday Night Live (SNL) enthusiast. I can only imagine the excitement I’d feel if I were to witness them all in one night, and I’m sure there are many who would be willing to pay a substantial amount just to be part of the audience as well.

Regarding your query about the ticket price for the comedy extravaganza featuring top comedians, the stand-up performance, titled “Hello World”, provided this information as well. Interestingly, he mentioned that the tickets for that night were estimated to be under $20.

Those people paid, I think, $18 for that ticket.

As stated on The Comedy Cellar’s website, the ticket prices for Thursday and Sunday shows are set at $18, while tickets for Friday and Saturday shows cost $25. Regardless of the day you visit this renowned comedy club, you can enjoy an affordable comedy experience. But let me tell you, this crowd certainly got their money’s worth!

What a fantastic, unforgettable event it must have been for the attendees! Who wouldn’t jump at the chance to witness a high-profile show, all while spending less than what you’d typically pay for a dinner in New York City that isn’t just a slice of pizza? Truly, it sounds like a dream come true.

It’s likely that the performers also had an enjoyable time, as it provided a pleasant interlude for them during the weekend. Attending the SNL 50: The Homecoming Concert and the three-hour-long Anniversary special seems to have made for a well-spaced weekend event.

Moving forward from the memorable SNL weekend that’s just passed, there’s plenty of anticipation about who will join the roster of hosts and musicians in the coming episodes, following Shane Gillis, Tate McRae, and Lady Gaga. Here’s hoping it maintains the same vibrant atmosphere as this comedy club night, the reunion, and the initial part of Season 50.

In essence, the lesson here seems to be: Should you find yourself in New York City, consider attending a comedy show; it might just offer an unexpected encounter with talent like John Mulaney or Steve Martin for only $18. But if the city’s charm doesn’t appeal, you can still revisit Saturday Night Live’s historic moments through a Peacock subscription instead.
