Ontario Comedy Festival 2026 – Collingwood, Ontario

Saturday, June 13, 2026 – Eddie Bush Memorial Arena

Get ready to laugh until your sides hurt—because the Ontario Comedy Festival is coming to Collingwood, Ontario, on Saturday, June 13, 2026 at the historic Eddie Bush Memorial Arena. This one-day comedy extravaganza will bring together some of the funniest performers on the planet for a night of outrageous stand-up, unforgettable stories, and high-energy entertainment.

World-Class Lineup

The festival proudly features some of the greatest comedians in the world, including:

Gerry Dee: Gerry Dee is the star and co-creator of CBC’s hit comedy Mr. D, which ran for eight seasons. He currently hosts Family Feud Canada and stars as Templeton Dudge in FOX’s sitcom Animal Control. His first book, Teaching: It’s Harder Than It Looks, was a national bestseller, and he released his second book in October 2023.

Ahren Belsile: A finalist on America’s Got Talent and featured performer on Kill Tony, Bélisle has become one of the most unique and uplifting voices in modern comedy.

Kansai Yasuda: Kansai Yasuda is a rising Canadian comedian known for his high-energy performances and sharp observational humour. Based in Toronto, he’s become a regular on the Canadian comedy circuit, performing at major clubs and festivals across the country.

Jarad Nathan: A regular at top comedy clubs across Canada, Jarad has been featured on Kill Tony and continues to gain recognition as one of the most authentic and engaging new voices in comedy.

Jennifer Hsiung: In addition to her comedy career, Jennifer is also a journalist and TV personality, previously anchoring for CP24 Breakfast. Her material often explores family, cultural identity, motherhood, and life as an Asian-Canadian woman in the entertainment industry.

Together, these diverse acts will deliver a comedy showcase like no other—ranging from clever observational humor and biting satire to raw, unfiltered, and downright outrageous sets.
