IT’S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR … IT’S IMPROVAGANZA

Want to make the most of the festival? The Improvaganza Festival Pass includes 6 ticket credits that can be redeemed however you’d like across the festival. Mix and match shows, bring friends, or use all your credits on your favourites.

This Father’s Day, we’re celebrating the highest form of comedy: the dad joke.

Join us for a completely improvised show packed with puns, groan-worthy punchlines, and enough embarrassing parent energy to make you text your dad immediately. Whether you're a dad, have a dad, or have ever suffered through a dad joke, this show is for you.

👔 This Father’s Day, come laugh, cringe, and celebrate the art of the dad joke.
