Montreal Comedy Festivals

The Canadian Comedy Cartel is proud to offer comedy fans from all over the world some of Montreal’s best well kept secrets. It is festival season in Montreal. Some believe that because Just For Laugh’s is finished that means comedy in this city is as well. Those people are stupid.

Hurley’s Irish Pub Presents

World’s Smallest Comedy Festival

Every year from July 21st to July 31st, the World’s Smallest Comedy Festival (#WSCF) will feature top comedians from Montreal and beyond, performing their best material at the iconic Hurley’s Irish Pub on Crescent Street.

The festival includes popular shows that have solidified the World’s Smallest brand as a key part of Montreal’s comedy scene, such as the World’s Smallest Showcase, The Dirtiest Show, Laughs on the Terrasse, and World’s Smallest Blackout. Additionally, we’ll highlight exceptional podcasts that enrich Montreal’s arts scene, including Advice by the Fireplace, Go Plug Yourself, House of Stone, Rapid Flames, and more.

Created during the comedy drought of 2022, the World’s Smallest Comedy Festival aims to spotlight Montreal’s amazing talent and offer comedians from across Canada a chance to experience the vibrant culture of La Belle Province.

Organized by the producers of World’s Smallest Comedy Night, which was voted the #1 Comedy Show in CultMTL’s Best of 2024, this festival is a must-attend event for comedy lovers.
