The Queen 500 N Market St Wilmington, DE 19801

Welcome to the dance party for the people who still want to go out, just not at midnight. If you’re 30+, you know the deal: we still love to scream-sing and sweat on the dancefloor, we’d just prefer to be in bed before the birds are. Come dance to the music that raised you, pop bangers, indie disco nights, blog-era anthems, guilty pleasures we’re not ashamed of anymore… all before 9PM.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/142506/t/tickets" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>

The Grand Opera House

Get ready for a no-holds-barred night of comedy as “The Reverend” Bob Levy takes the stage with his signature unapologetic, raw, and outrageous humor. Known for his appearances on The Howard Stern Show and his years on the road with the Killers of Comedy tour, Levy delivers a style that pulls no punches and spares no one.
With a background as unpredictable as his punchlines, Bob Levy blends real-life stories, sharp observations, and brutally honest takes into a performance that’s as wild as it is hilarious. His quick wit and fearless approach to comedy have made him a fan favorite among audiences who like their laughs loud, edgy, and completely uncensored.
This is not your typical comedy show—this is Rated R for a reason. If you’re ready for comedy that crosses the line and keeps going, don’t miss your chance to see Bob Levy live.
