The dark days of winter are upon us and there's no better way to keep away the blues than a night of laughter with some hilarious stand-up comedy!
The Snowed in Comedy Tour is in it’s sixth year. Four internationally recognized comedians come together to go snowboarding during the day and do shows at night across western Canada. This year features Arj Barker, Dan Quinn, Craig Campbell and Pete Johansson.
There's an impressive list of stops below that hit up pretty much every town across BC and Alberta. These guys are gonna get a lot of turns and laughs! A little birdie even told me there might be a guest appearance or two from some of the biggest snowboarders and skiers in the industry ... cough ... T Rice ... cough.
