What people are saying about FUNNYFEST:
“FunnyFest is pure FUNNY and fun to the max!!! I have never laughed so hard in my life!!!”
— Festival Ticket Buyer, Bill Cleetus
“FunnyFest was rewarding and fun. I met many people. It was stimulating for me to work on a number of projects and jobs and to see so many ideas expressed. I was so impressed that the volunteers did it. I reached into myself and contributed. The laughing at the end of the night was the icing on the cake.”
— Volunteer, Trina Wapemoose
“After watching and laughing at shows for the last 20 plus years with FunnyFest, I have seen many of the FunnyFest comedians become well - known names in comedy. They certainly are brilliantly creative. Many of the comedians come back often to FunnyFest, as it is pure to its name: A Festival of Funny. If you can, don't miss the FunnyFest Comedy Festival, as it is the best value for your entertainment $.”
- Festival Supporter and Volunteer --- Pete Leschuk
“As you conclude this year’s FunnyFest I wanted to pass on our organization’s thanks for all the special treatment and excellent service we received.
It was definitely a new format for Junior Achievement to recognize the many individuals that participate in our programs. The age range of the audience was perfect for this type of venue. I have had several calls in appreciation of the invitation and notes on the high caliber of entertainers. As this was the only part we had little control over, I greatly appreciate your efforts to manage this.
Thank you Stu for the professionalism shown to us and I hope the FunnyFest event will continue to be a part of Calgary’s entertainment scene.”

“Every other day… I always chuckle when I think of some of the comedy bits and crazy antics I saw at FunnyFest last year. Sometimes my coworkers think I am being silly, when all I am doing is recollecting the hilarity!”
- Audience member Bill Kozlov
“It’s like being in the all star game of comedy. Outside of FunnyFest, I rarely get to perform on the same bill with these guys because they’re all headliners.”
- Stand Up Comic, Dez Reed
“This will be my 10th appearance at FunnyFest … I love the audiences and pure comedy focus of the festival. FUNNYFEST is a very unique festival atmosphere … everyone laughs and wins.”
