The 2010 Toronto Just for Laughs event starts this coming Tuesday, July 6 to Sunday, July 11 and Toronto needs a good laugh.

The HaHaHa website says that "from July 6 to 11, the Toronto Just For Laughs Festival presented by WestJet will once again bring the world’s best comedians to Toronto. Since 2007, the Festival has already entertained over 350,000 visitors with such renowned stars such as Russell Peters, John Cleese, Sarah Silverman and Sugar Sammy. To date the Festival has generated more than $10 million in tourism and economic activity in Toronto. More than just a platform for entertainment, The Toronto Just For Laughs Festival presented by Westjet is also a viable economic driver that creates jobs in the cultural sector and supports continued employment in all aspects of the tourism industry."


I will be going Friday to watch the show headlined by Russell Peters - he is one of the best in the biz and I look forward to his performance. It is hard to find information on the Yonge Street Just for Laughs Festival which closes down the street for a party with plenty of performers putting on free shows in the street and at Yonge-Dundas Square. Once the information is confirmed I will post the information.
