JIMMY CARR: TERRIBLY FUNNY
VICTORIA, BC ● SAVE-ON-FOODS MEMORIAL CENTRE ● June 23

Just For Laughs is thrilled to present the return of UK comedy superstar Jimmy Carr to Canada with his new show Jimmy Carr: Terribly Funny. A household name in UK television and star of the UK’s most streamed Netflix comedy special of 2021, His Dark Material, Jimmy will be in Victoria, BC on June 23, 2023 at the Save-on-Foods Centre as part of his national Terribly Funny tour.

This is the third time that Jimmy will be back on the road in Canada following two sold out tours with Just For Laughs in 2016 and 2018. Featuring completely new material, the Terribly Funny tour is slated to be his most successful tour to date, with ticket sales expected to exceed 480,000 by the end of the year.

About Terribly Funny

Jimmy’s show contains jokes about all kinds of terrible things. Terrible things that might have affected you or people you know and love. But they’re just jokes – they are not the terrible things. Having political correctness at a comedy show is like having health and safety at a rodeo. Now you’ve been warned, buy a ticket.
