THE GRAND SLAM

OF COMEDY!

Drew’s KamComedyFest is a Stand Up Comedy Festival that has been entertaining Kamloops since 2017. Originally started by local Kamloops community hero, Drew McLean, the Kamloops Comedy Society formed to continue the legacy of the festival after his sudden and tragic passing in 2021.

Not only does Drew’s KamComedyFest bring unique, professional and popular comedians from all across Canada and beyond to Kamloops, it also has a mandate to provide local professional and amateur comedians a place to showcase their talent and humour to their hometown.
