JUST FOR LAUGHS VANCOUVER has kicked off its programming announcement for next year with one of the biggest names in comedy.

Headliner Jerry Seinfeld will take the stage at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre on February 23, with tickets going on sale this Friday, December 6, at 10 am at jflvancouver.com.

Just For Laughs VANCOUVER will return February 13 to 23, 2025, with a full festival lineup to be revealed next week.

Jerry Seinfeld is perhaps best known for co-creating history’s most successful comedy series: Seinfeld, which ran on NBC for nine seasons. Seinfeld’s latest Emmy-nominated Netflix projects includes Unfrosted: The Pop-Tart Story, Jerry Before Seinfeld, and 23 Hours to Kill, along with his popular web series, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. 

But he’s also celebrated as one of the greatest standups of all time, respected for the craftmanship he brings to his observational comedy.

Watch for more announcements for this ninth edition of Just For Laughs VANCOUVER next week.
