Just for Laughs Toronto is the Ontario-based non-profit organization responsible for one of North America's largest English-language comedy festivals: the Just for Laughs Toronto festival and other events. We occupy a unique place in the comedy world as one of the leading platforms for stand-up artists. Since 2012, the annual festival has showcased the biggest names in comedy, served as a springboard for emerging local and national comedians, and played a key role in attracting tourism and generating economic benefits for Ontario and the City of Toronto.

Just for Laughs Toronto's mission is based on: reaching the widest possible audience; promoting discovery—by showcasing the next generation of local talent from Toronto, Ontario, and Canada; supporting the comedy industry and the development of the comedy arts in Toronto, across the province, and beyond. We pursue this mission by staying at the forefront of comedy innovation—through impeccable event management and unparalleled programming designed to make Toronto THE must-see destination for comedy for a broad and diverse audience.
