There is no better way to pull out of the gloomy February deep freeze than with a belly of laughs. 

Train Wreck Comedy is set to deliver a lineup of comedic talent to Penticton and Âé¶¹AV, featuring the Okanagan’s own Rob Balsdon. 

Check out the hilarity on Thursday, Feb. 20 at The HUB on Martin in Penticton and Saturday, Feb. 22 at Freddy’s Brewpub in Âé¶¹AV.

Whether seeking an entertaining night out with friends, a unique date night, or simply a chance to shake off the winter blues, this show guarantees an evening of first-class comedy.

Matt Baker will host both nights with his signature mix of goofy charm, sharp wit, and endearing delivery. 

Baker has been a regular on the Canadian comic scene with credits like JFL Northwest and CBC’s LOL Radio. In Penticton, Jamie Charest joins the fun—a B.C. comedy scene staple who’s shared the stage with Tom Green, Tom Segura, and Steve-O. Âé¶¹AV gets a special treat with Joey Commisso, who just landed his debut comedy album. 

Headlining the event both nights is Balsdon, the founder of Train Wreck Comedy and a well-established name in the Canadian comedy scene. With over two decades of experience, Balsdon’s high-energy, interactive performances have entertained audiences nationwide. Having performed alongside industry greats including Shaun Majumder, Gerry Dee, and the legendary Norm MacDonald, he is sure to deliver an electrifying performance.

Tickets for both shows are now available at .
