Jerry Seinfeld, Kumail Nanjiani among headliners at Just For Laughs Vancouver

VANCOUVER — Jerry Seinfeld is among the big names set to headline Just For Laughs Vancouver.

The comedy festival announced its lineup Tuesday morning.

In addition to Seinfeld, who’s due to perform twice on Feb. 23, the slate includes American comedians Kumail Nanjiani, Tim Dillon and Margaret Cho.

Canadian comedians on the schedule include Sugar Sammy and Laurent Paquin.

This will be the first Just For Laughs festival to take place in Canada since the beleaguered organization declared bankruptcy and was purchased by ComediHa last year.

It will run from Feb. 13 to 23, just weeks after Just For Laughs Bermuda in January.
