Outback Presents and Chambers Touring are proud to announce that global comedy superstar Jimmy Carr is returning to Canada with his biggest national tour ever. The brand-new show, Jimmy Carr: Laughs Funny, will hit an unprecedented 31 cities across the country, a first for an international comedian. The tour will play coast to coast kicking off in Victoria on September 16, 2026 with 5 additional British-Columbia stops including Abbotsford for the first time on September 17, Vancouver on September 18, Kelowna on September 19, for the first time in Kamloops on September 20 and Prince George on September 21.

Known worldwide for his lightning-quick wit, dark one-liners and unmistakable laugh, Jimmy Carr remains one of the most successful and best-selling comedians on the planet. A master of razor-sharp humour, he has toured to over 40 countries, sold millions of tickets, and continues to be one of the most streamed stand-ups of the last decade. His most recent tour, Terribly Funny 2.0, surpassed one million tickets worldwide and saw him perform 293 shows across 145 cities in a single year—cementing his reputation as one of the hardest-working acts in comedy.
Following his sold-out 2023 tour, Jimmy Carr returns to Canada with his fifth and most ambitious Canadian tour yet, Jimmy Carr: Laughs Funny. Alongside time-honoured cities such as Toronto, Vancouver, Montréal, Calgary, Ottawa, Halifax and Winnipeg, this tour will bring Jimmy to new markets he has never performed in before, expanding his Canadian footprint further than ever.
“A comedy hero for our times.”
The Guardian
“Jimmy Carr is a world-class comedian.”
The Independent
A dominant force in UK television, Jimmy has fronted some of the country’s biggest comedy institutions, including Channel 4’s 8 Out of 10 Cats, 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, and The Big Fat Quiz of the Year, as well as Comedy Central’s Roast Battle UK and Your Face or Mine. He is a staple on QI and A League of Their Own, has performed at The Royal Variety Performance three times, and was a judge on all series of BBC1 entertainment series I Can See Your Voice. Most recently, Jimmy hosted the first UK series of Last One Laughing, which has been a viral hit for Amazon and is in production on series 2. His latest series, Jimmy Carr’s Am I The A**hole?, is currently airing weekly on Comedy Central and Paramount+.
In North America, Jimmy is one of the most recognizable UK comedy voices. He became the first British comedian to sign a Netflix stand-up deal, releasing four hit specials—Funny Business, Best Of Ultimate Gold Greatest Hits, His Dark Material on HBO, and Natural Born Killer. The latter debuted in 2024, reaching the Top 10 in 29 countries and earning 2.3 million viewing hours in its first week. He also created the Netflix panel show The Fix and has appeared on The Tonight Show, The Late Late Show, and Late Night with Conan O’Brien.
Jimmy is also a bestselling author whose memoir Before & Laughter was praised for its honesty, insight, and humour, following his earlier book The Naked Jape.
