Stand-Up Comedy
Yuk Yuks Affiliate Comedy Club
Real laughs, real often — from local open mics to touring pros.
The Partnership
Backed by Yuk Yuks
Daft is proud to be an official Yuk Yuks Affiliate Comedy Club. Yuk Yuks has been Canada's biggest comedy club chain for almost 50 years, with over 100 professional comedians in their roster. At least once a month, we host a ticketed show featuring 3-4 touring pros in the classic club format — MC, opener, feature, and headliner.
Free & Local
First Thursday, every month
Beyond the Yuk Yuks nights, we still run our free monthly show on the first Thursday of every month — 8 to 12 local comedians with the occasional pro dropping in. Expect new faces, shorter sets, and no cover charge.
What makes a Yuk Yuks night different?
Our free monthly show features a big lineup of local comedians. A Yuk Yuks show at Daft is smaller and sharper — 3-4 professional comics who do this for a living, with longer sets and the classic club format. New faces, new material, bigger laughs.
