Frequently Asked Questions
When is Chelsea Handler performing in Modesto and what time does the show start?
Chelsea Handler is scheduled to perform in Modesto, California on Sunday, May 17, 2026 at the Gallo Center for the Arts, in the Mary Stuart Rogers Theater, with showtime listed at 5:00 PM. Plan to arrive at least 30–45 minutes early so you have time to park, go through ticket scanning, and find your seat before the comedy begins.
Where is the Gallo Center for the Arts located?
The Gallo Center for the Arts is located in downtown Modesto at 1000 I Street, at the corner of 10th and I Streets. The Mary Stuart Rogers Theater is one of the two main performance spaces inside the center, putting you right in the heart of downtown near restaurants, hotels, and other attractions.
Which theater is Chelsea Handler performing in and what is it like?
Chelsea Handler’s show is in the Mary Stuart Rogers Theater, the larger of the Gallo Center’s two main venues. This state-of-the-art theater seats about 1,248 people and was designed for great sightlines and sound, so it feels intimate while still accommodating a good-sized audience for stand-up comedy.
How long does a Chelsea Handler show at the Gallo Center usually last?
Most Chelsea Handler stand-up shows run about 1.5 to 2 hours from the scheduled start time, including any opening act and her main set. Because shows at the Gallo Center tend to start on time and intermissions for comedy are often short or skipped, it is wise to be seated before showtime so you do not miss the beginning.
Which seats are best for a Chelsea Handler show at the Mary Stuart Rogers Theater?
The Mary Stuart Rogers Theater is relatively intimate, and most seats have a good view, but the best experience is usually in the first 10–15 rows of the orchestra where you are close to the stage. Box seats and front Grand Tier seats are also highly rated for comfort and sightlines, offering a good combination of visibility and comfort if you are willing to pay a bit more.
How can I get cheap tickets for Chelsea Handler in Modesto?
To get cheaper tickets, compare prices from the official Gallo Center site and several major ticket platforms, making sure to look at the total cost including service fees, not just the base price. Be flexible with seat locations by considering mid or rear orchestra and Grand Tier seats instead of the very front rows, watch resale listings as the date approaches because prices sometimes drop, and sort ticket options by “lowest price” to quickly find budget-friendly choices.
Where do I park for a show at the Gallo Center and how much does it cost?
The Gallo Center’s official event parking facility is a covered garage located about one block away at 820 (or 802) 12th Street, with a flat event rate of about $5 cash per vehicle during performances. There is also additional street parking and other nearby garages in downtown Modesto, but using the official garage is usually the most convenient option for theater guests.
How can I save money or avoid hassle with parking?
You can keep parking costs low by using the official $5 garage rather than more expensive private lots and by arriving early to secure a spot before it fills up. If you are staying at the nearby DoubleTree by Hilton Modesto or another downtown hotel, consider walking from the hotel instead of moving your car, which saves both time and parking fees.
Are there any age restrictions or special policies for this show?
The Gallo Center generally welcomes audiences of various ages, and the Mary Stuart Rogers Theater has no strict age limit listed for most events, though parental discretion is advised for adult comedy. Standard policies include requiring a ticket for each occupied seat, following house rules on behavior and recording, and respecting the start time so late arrivals cause minimal disruption.
What other tips should I know for attending Chelsea Handler at the Gallo Center?
Plan your route and parking ahead of time using the Gallo Center’s directions and parking information so you are not rushed, and consider enjoying downtown Modesto’s restaurants before or after the show. Because popular events at the Gallo Center often sell out and lines for concessions can form, arriving early gives you the best choice of parking, time to grab a drink or snack, and a relaxed start to Chelsea Handler’s High and Mighty Tour set.
