About this Event
EARLY BIRD TICKETS UNTIL JANUARY 11
Come join us this January for the 3rd edition of Big Joke Smackdown 🥊, Toronto’s most unserious stand-up competition. We're once again inviting some of our favorite rising comedians to our stage, to see if they can win over the crowd and earn our highly coveted, one-of-a-kind, Golden Eggplant Trophy™ ✨🍆 !!
As a member of the audience, YOU will cast your Top 3 rankings that will decide the sole winner and the numerous losers. The winner will be showered in praise and glory that will give them a dangerous amount of overconfidence.
The evening will be capped off with a set from a pro headliner and a ceremony for the victor.
