The
Riviera Hotel & Casino is quickly becoming the preeminent stop for all
things comedy in Las Vegas as legendary comics are taking the stage throughout
the year. The Icons of Comedy Series and Andrew Dice Clay bring comedic star
power to the Riviera, making the property the place to be on a nightly basis.

the Riviera continues to feature talented comedians inside the iconic Riviera
Comedy Club and will be the new home for Jonathan Clark, the only resident

continually looking for great entertainment to showcase at the Riviera and we
are thrilled that some of the funniest and most talented people on the comedy
circuit will be performing here in 2012,” says Andy Choy, president and CEO of

Girls, we are certain visitors to our property will have a fantastic time.”
