Upcoming Event: Just For Laughs Vancouver
Wendy Underwood
Along with revelling in live shows being back in town, we can all certainly use a good laugh (or a night of them) these days, right? Formerly known as JFL NorthWest, Just For Laughs Vancouver is back, and remains Western Canada’s biggest comedy festival. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry (from laughter), you’ll laugh again. From May 25 to 29, expect a schedule chock-full of stand-up, podcasts, improv, sketch performances, and breakout sets from your next favourite comics. See them now and nail down bragging rights for having seen them before their big HBO special premieres!
The festival is back with a bang, featuring the likes of Joel Kim Booster, the inimitable Maria Bamford, the Daily Show’s Roy Wood Jr., plus podcast sensation Marc Maron (you’ll want to nab tickets for that one while you still can). Ensure you catch some local fare too, like the Vancouver Special Comedy Show, and Ola Dada’s Black Out Comedy, featuring the city’s funniest black stand-up comedians alongside international headliners.
