The newest gem in Saskatoon’s comedy scene, Art Bar, has taken over the old 9 Mile Brewing space on 19th Street, in the Riversdale District!  This intimate venue brings in both local and touring comedians, making it a must-visit for anyone craving live entertainment. Plus, they have 9 Miile, The Ticket (my fav beer) on tap, win!

Yuk Yuk's Comedy Club is a staple of Canada’s stand-up scene, and Saskatoon’s location at the Park Town Hotel keeps the tradition alive. Every Friday night, top comedians from across the country take the stage, delivering high-energy sets to packed crowds.  

Want to make it a night? Book a room at the Park Town Hotel, how convenient is that? Plus, pre-and post-show drinks at Riverside Lounge or Finn’s Irish Pub make for the perfect comedy night out.

TCU Place

Saskatoon's premier event venue, TCU Place, has welcomed some great comedians, including Gerry Dee, Jim Jefferies, and Russell Peters. With its spacious seating and prime downtown location, TCU is ideal for catching top-tier comedy acts.

Grab dinner before the show or enjoy a nightcap afterward; it's all part of the downtown experience!
