Zarna Garg: Million Dollar Excuses

Thu, Dec 31, 2026 · 5:30 PM ETBeacon Theatre · New York

Zarna Garg brings Million Dollar Excuses to the Beacon Theatre on New Year's Eve, with doors at 4:30 PM and the show at 5:30 PM. The immigrant-mom comedy that built her following online plays very differently in a 2,800-seat Upper West Side landmark: big room, sharp pacing, an audience that came for the jokes rather than a countdown. The early start is the selling point. You get a major comedian at a major NYC theater and still have the whole night free for dinner on Columbus Avenue, a Lincoln Center-area bar or a midnight party downtown. Tickets are sold through the venue's official ticketing.

Laugh your way into 2027 uptown.
