Queer comedy institution Gay AF Comedy is taking its uplifting brand of stand-up to the Maritime and Prairie provinces with a five city tour featuring JFL headliner and CBC Comedy alumni Ava Val, and hosted by Canadian Comedy Award winner Robert Watson. The Gay AF Comedy Tour kicks off Wednesday April 9 th in Moncton, with stops in Charlottetown, Halifax, Saskatoon and Winnipeg.

Gay AF Comedy has been serving big laughs in Toronto since 2019 with a focus on amplifying comedic voices from the many intersections of the 2SLGBTQ+ community. After a wildly successful Western provinces tour in 2024 Gay AF is backing up its claim of being “Canada’s favourite Queer Comedy fix” by bringing its big-show-energy to the Maritimes and Prairies throughout April.

Headlining the tour is one of Canada’s fastest rising stand-up stars Ava Val, serving her high octane brand of hilarity that invites everyone to laugh and be enlightened by her experiences as a transgender woman. With the lineup filled out in each city by local Queer comedians, audiences can expect a night full of big Gay fun.

“With all that is happening to our LGBTQ community around the world, now is the right time to kick our Queer visibility into high gear by going on the road,’ says host and Canadian Comedy Award winner Robert Watson, whose successes include a #1 debut on the Itunes Comedy charts in 2023. “When our community is under attack it is more important than ever to feel and experience Queer joy, and Queer joy is exactly what Gay AF Comedy delivers.”

The Gay AF Comedy Tour commences Wednesday April 9th in Moncton, with stops in Charlottetown April 10th, Halifax April 11th, Saskatoon April 24th, and concluding in Winnipeg Saturday April 26th. For all tour and ticket information visit linktr.ee/gayafcomedytour.
