House of Fire Open Mic Comedy Night Coming to Yuma County

Organizers announced on November 17 that House of Fire will host an open mic comedy night at Lost Traveler MHP RV Park, located at 18540 S. Avenue 3E, on December 20. Performers will be able to sign up beginning at 6:30 p.m., with the show scheduled to begin at 7 p.m. Each set will be limited to five minute performances and tickets will be $5 for adults age 18 and older.

The announcement frames the event as a community oriented opportunity for emerging comedians and casual performers to get stage experience close to home. For Yuma County residents, the format and low ticket price make the event accessible to a range of participants and audiences, from long time RV park residents to visitors and neighboring neighborhoods. Short sets are intended to keep the program moving and to give a larger number of performers time on stage during the evening.

Holding the event at Lost Traveler MHP RV Park situates cultural activity in a nontraditional venue, reflecting a broader trend of grassroots arts moving into community spaces. That approach can lower barriers for both performers and attendees, especially in parts of the county that lack dedicated performing arts venues. For local organizers and small businesses, community events such as this can generate modest economic activity and foster connections among residents, managers, and event volunteers.

The show structure emphasizes participation and civic engagement. Open mic nights often serve as an entry point for creative expression, allowing new voices to test material and audiences to discover local talent. By setting clear sign up and time limits, organizers create a predictable environment that helps maintain event flow and gives fair turns to a range of acts.

Practical details for those planning to attend or perform include arriving early to secure a spot in the sign up line, and preparing a concise five minute set. The adult ticket fee is set at $5, and other admission details were not specified in the announcement. Organizers encourage local performers and community members to take part, either as entertainers or as audience members supporting local creativity.

As Yuma County residents consider their winter social calendar, the House of Fire open mic offers a low cost opportunity to engage with community arts and to support emerging local performers in a neighborhood setting.
