Today, the Honourable Pascale St-Onge, Minister of Canadian Heritage, and the Honourable Soraya Martinez Ferrada, Minister of Tourism and Minister responsible for the Economic Development Agency of Canada for the Regions of Quebec, announced the Government of Canada's commitment to support a unique edition of "ComediHa! salue Montréal!" taking place from July 18 to 28, 2024, in the Quartier des spectacles.
Montréal is synonymous with great festive gatherings. The economic and cultural benefits are undeniable, both for the Montréal region and for the country as a whole. The project proposed by ComediHa! fits perfectly into the city's calendar and provides a transitional platform for local and international talent to continue to shine on the Montréal summer scene.
ComediHa! celebrates its 25th anniversary this year. To mark the occasion, it will be offering high-profile events at the Place des Festivals and other venues, confirming Montréal's vital role in showcasing comedy on a national and international scale.
The Government of Canada will release details of this support at a later date.
