Rise Performance

Welcome to Saint Patrick Cathedral, the seat of the Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of El Paso. Located in downtown El Paso, the Cathedral is an important historical landmark and a beautiful expression of faith. The clergy and townspeople built it to showcase their devotion to their religion. The Cathedral boasts custom-made stained-glass windows created by the Emil Frei Art Glass Co. of St. Louis and Munich. These windows depict scenes of Jesus Christ's life, from His birth to resurrection. The windows were donated by different parishioners, who also included inscriptions dedicated to their friends or family members.

The Comic Strip is a lovely nightclub where you can laugh, whether you're watching a headliner or up-and-coming talent. The seating is arranged like a cabaret theater, with tables and chairs facing the stage, and the staff is friendly and discreet, ensuring you don't miss any of the action. To make the most of your visit, The Comic Strip suggests checking out a YouTube clip or the headliner's biography beforehand to get an idea of what to expect. Reserved ticket holders are seated closer to the stage, while General Admission seating is on a first-come-first-served basis. The venue also offers a range of event and room rental options, perfect for office parties or other gatherings.
